Not for the faint-hearted

Video: Anderlecht star suffers a horrific leg break

Who said nothing interesting ever happens in Belgium?

Sunday’s hotly anticipated Belgian First Division match between Standard Liege and Anderlecht will certainly be a game to remember for Polish defender Marcin Wasilewski, but unfortunately, it may also be his last.

Midway through the first half, Standard Liege’s Axel Witsel put in a disgraceful challenge on Wasilewski, which resulted in an open double leg fracture.

Never have we seen such a poignant non verbal expression of pain and anguish than the look on the poor Pole’s face at around the [0.25] second mark.

    Wasilewski dived feet first towards witsel right?
    isn’t that bad conduct worthy of a send off for Wasilewski so that would mean Wasilewski was in the wrong.right?
    can someone please clarify
