    I remember a video of a soccer player who took a hard shot to the head, and for some reason suffered a brain injury caused him to keep repeating the last action he'd just done. So he sprung right up from the ground and started furiously running in place trying to stay upright, and then flung himself backward again and again - just having a horrible fit. It was easily the worst injury I've ever seen.

    I forget who it was, I think it was a player from the middle east or north africa and all the youtube videos said he died shortly thereafter - but he actually ended up ok.

    I completely disagree. Was it a bad tackle? Of course, but we see tackles like this all the time. Just because Eduardo suffered a terrible injury shouldn't make the punishment any worse. Michael Brown made a worse tackle on Ryan Giggs last year, but Giggs didn't get injured and Brown wasn't punished. Wenger is a joke, he never see fouls committed by his own players, but calls for a lifetime ban on Taylor? What a joke.

    I think this is the video that are you referring, its an arabian player and in a lot of videos they said that the angel of death takes his life, and I didnt know, but your explanation seems better. but still very impressive injury :confused:
