In a Copa America match between Uruguay and Chile this past Friday, Uruguay's Alvaro Gonzalez makes an extra effort to block a free kick by Chile's Jorge Valdivia. In the process, Gonzalez takes the full brunt of the impact in his crotch.
You'll have to skip to about the 28 second mark in the video, as most of it primarily revolves around Gonzales lying on the ground in pain afterwards.
You would think being that close to a free kick that he would remember to "protect himself". Another valuable reminder for the kids at home.
