Tough red but Marcelo didn’t exactly avoid the obvious collision
Defender wasn’t close on the tackle and he can only really blame himself

Injury was worse than I thought. Complete knee dislocation. One of the worst injuries in all of sport (obviously). The location of the neurovascular bundle behind the knee means 25% have a popliteal artery injury and 25% have a peroneal nerve injury (and potentially permanent foot drop).
Also the fact that it looks so bad in the X-ray is horrific because it means the team’s medical crew didn’t reduce the dislocation, which is needed ASAP to reduce the risk of neurovascular compromise.
