Worst Football Injuries

The most serious injuries in football history

7. Eduardo da Silva (2007-08)

the attacker was the victim of a hard tackle when he was wearing an Arsenal shirt. It all happened in the match against Birmingham, in which Martin Taylor made an aggressive tackle with the studs ahead. The result? Left fibular fractur.

6. Djibril Cisse (2004 and 2006)
Djibril Cissé is remembered for his eccentricity, footballing quality and for two serious injuries he suffered just two years apart. The first happened in 2004, when he played a match for Liverpool against Blackburn Rovers. A challenge from Jay McEveley meant the fracture of the tibia of his left leg

5. Alf-Inge Haaland (2000-01)
Erling Haaland’s father, Alf-Inge, is also in the top 7 for the most serious injuries in football history. The cause was the feared Roy Keane, in the midst of the rivalry between Manchester United and Manchester City. In this way, the captain of the Red Devils – with an entry that he later admitted was on purpose – suffered torn ligaments in the Norwegian’s left knee.

4. Petr Cech (2006-07)
The goalkeepers are also subjected to many friction actions, mainly in individual duels and actions arising from corners. To that end, Petr Čech, in his long spell as Chelsea goalkeeper, suffered a critical event. This time, the rival in the Premier League was Reading and the fortuitous clash took place with Stephen Hunt, triggering a depressed skull fracture.

3.Manuel Pablo Garcia (2001-02)
Another of the most serious injuries in football occurred in the Spanish league and was carried out by Manuel Pablo, the well-remembered right-back who spent his entire career defending the colors of Deportivo La Coruña. In short, in the middle of the confrontation against Celta de Vigo, Everton Giovanella made a sweep to win the ball, but the Arucas-born was dragged away.

2.Michael Krohn-Dehli (2015-16)
Michael Krohn-Dehli caused the scare of locals and strangers when in the first leg of the semifinals of the Europa League, wearing the Sevilla shirt, he suffered a fracture and tearing of the lower pole of the patella of his left knee. An unnatural twist of his joint caused the incident.

  1. David Busst (1995-1996)
    We have to go back to 1996, the year in which David Busst experienced the worst moment. The Coventry City defender collided with not one, but two players (Danis Irwin and Brian McClair). The terrible consequence was a double fracture of the tibia and fibula on his right leg.
