    Martin Taylor's been sent off, Eduardo's writhing in agony, and the Arsenal players look like they're going to be sick - and Sky have decided not to show the incident again as its too upsetting.</p>

    What happened? How bad was it?

    No

    Just switched on when Soccer Saturday mentioned it....forgot it was 12:45ko, thought it was 1pm.

    But then they said they decided not to show again - must be bad if they decide not to show again.

    They're saying on commentary that he's certain to be out of Euro 2008, so it must be one of those incidents when you just know the leg is broken. Arsenal look horrified.

    They were comparing it

    to the David Busst injury.

    Talksport suggested that if its as bad as it looked, his career could be over. Said his leg seemed to "shatter".

    RE: They were comparing it

    The David Busst injury was shown again and again, and it was horrific each time. I remember that Peter Schmeichel was nearly sick on the pitch and had to turn away. And Busst never played again.

    So it they can't show it, it must be bad.
