And in the same way, these 15 unlucky footballers suffered horrible injuries that kept them out of action for months as well.

Some even had their careers over.

So, here are the stomach incidents that can make YOUR leg loop.

Be careful, the pictures are not pretty.

15. DJIBRIL CISSE

Right at the bottom.

The French striker had a remarkable recovery power, breaking his leg twice and going up in the space of six months twice.

That of Les Bleus seems worse …

14. HENRIK LARSSON

The Swede took one for Celtic in a UEFA Cup match against Lyon in 1999.

The challenge with Serge Blanc earned him a double leg and he is absent for the rest of the season.

But he came back to play eight months later and it could have been worse for the striker – who then joined Barcelona.

13. AARON RAMSEY

Shawcross was on the other end of the line, not so long ago, when his horror challenge to Ramsey saw the Welsh's leg split almost in half.

Ramsey had been out for nine months, but fortunately he came back and launched his mega money recently transferred to £ 400,000 a week for Juventus.

The Gunners midfielder notoriously cleared Shawcross after the incident and the notorious hard-core man even claimed that the tackle had "changed public personality".

12. LUKE SHAW

Shaw fights injury and fitness since moving to Man Utd with a £ 33 million contract.

He was cruelly deprived of ten months of activity after suffering a double fracture in a challenge launched by PSV Hector Moreno.

The Mexican defender was in tears when he visited the former left wing of Southampton at the hospital the following day.

11. MARCIN WASILEWSKI

Now Premier League champion with Leicester, there was a time when the great Polish defender could have thought his career was over.

Axel Witsel came in with a tight tackle during a hot shock between Anderlecht and Standard Liege which earned him an eight-game ban and left Wasilewski out of the game for ten months.

He considered suing and threatened to shake hands when they crossed again.

10. GARY MABBUTT

The leg breakers will turn your stomach, but this facial wound was really scary.

The former defender of the Spurs Mabbutt s is smashed the face by a dirty elbow of John Fashanu of Wimbledon.

This left him a fractured cheekbone in four places and an eye socket fissured three times.

Mabbutt needed a metal plate and was out of the game for 12 months.

9. Bert Trautmann

A former German prisoner of war, Trautmann broke his head before helping Manchester City beat Birmingham City 3-1 in the FA Cup final of 1956.

Heroic or stupid?

8. Petr Cech

Cech shattered Stephen Hunt's head from Reading in 2006 while he was playing for Chelsea.

He needed three months after surgery and was wearing head protection for the rest of his career.

7. EDUARDO DA SILVA

An unpleasant tackle with an unpleasant end.

Birmingham defenseman Martin Taylor saw the red after this horrible attack on the Gunners.

And Brazilian midfielder Gilberto Silva had to act as a translator for the medical staff since he spoke Portuguese and English.

Eduardo needed a year to recover but managed to continue his career at Arsenal and then at Shakhtar Donetsk.

6. KIERON DYER

Just ten days after his debut at West Ham, after a £ 6 million move from Newcastle, the English midfield career is in shambles.

Joe Jacobsen of Bristol Rovers was injured in the leg in two places.

Already worried about injuries, Dyer needed 17 months and was never the same player again.

The picture speaks for itself.

4. FEDERICO MATTIELLO

If there was no bad luck, the star of Juventus would not have luck at all.

He had already broken his leg once in his career before a collision with half-ecru Roma, Radja Naingollan, produced that shock.

At just 21, the defender was on loan at Chievo at the time.

3. LUC NILIS

Brazilian legend Ronaldo has already described the Belgian striker Villa as one of his favorite strike partners.

He then scored his debut against Chelsea in 2000.

But his career was over more than two games later after a collision with Ipswich goalkeeper Richard Wright left him fearing that his leg would have to be amputated.

2. PRESTON BURPO

Not the best known on the list among English football fans.

But it was a shock at the end of his career too.

The US goaltender broke his shin and fibula after crashing against New York Red Bulls striker Dane Richards.

1. DAVE BUSST

If you're here, obviously you like that kind of thing.

The terrible collision between Busst and Denis Irwin, of Manchester United, and Brian McClair let Peter Schmeichel vomit and need advice.

The former Coventry defender eventually contracted MRSA, causing him further damage to muscles and tissues.
