A footballer has suffered a horrific leg break in a South American football tournament.
And we must warn you, the above video does not make for pleasurable viewing.
The incident took place in the Clausura Tournament at the University Stadium of Nuevo Leon in a game between Tigres and Santos Laguna.
Luis Martinez, the Tigres player victim of the leg break, attempted a defensive challenge just left of the 12-yard-box.
But as the Mexican slid in, his left leg caught the turf and twisted underneath him.
