An accidental "self-inflicted injury" erupted during a Brazilian training session, featuring the stalwart Aidamilletao, whose rough tackle sent teammate Gabriele Martinelli to the ground in a shocking scene.
Brazil is gearing up for the upcoming U.S. Nations Cup with their first Group D group match against Costa Rica on Tuesday morning. However, before the match kicked off, an accident happened just so. During training, Gabier Martinelli received the ball and Aidamiledao dove from the sidelines to intercept it, only to cause Martinelli to fall to the ground in pain. Aidamiledao didn't seem to realize his teammate's injury and attempted to pull him to his feet, even appearing to be a bit impatient, before taking off.
Meanwhile, Martinelli's Arsenal teammate Gabil Magahis has been keeping a close eye on his injury, waiting for the team doctor to arrive. Rumor has it that Martinelli has suffered an ankle injury and needs medical assistance to leave the training ground. The injury is not minor and he may even miss the match against Costa Rica because of it.
Social media users have been vocal about Aidamilletao's behavior, suggesting that his tackles are too aggressive and unchecked. Some have even compared him to Real Madrid's stalwarts who were shivering with injuries last season, pointing out that he should have been more respectful of his teammates instead of hurting them for no reason.
