During a match between Altos and River in Brazil’s Campeonato Piauiense, the league of the state of Piauí, Altos’ Humberto was clocked by River’s Biro Biro with a high boot to the face.
Thankfully, medical tests ruled out a fracture, but Humberto did suffer a concussion and is still under observation following Sunday’s incident. The Brazilian midfielder says he has no recollection of the event itself, but he returned to the pitch after the match looking like Quasimodo.

We’re guessing that Humberto’s reaction at the hospital went something like this:
Because, damn, the boy looks like The Walking Dead’s Glenn Rhee after becoming acquainted with Negan’s bat Lucille.
Or maybe it's Pink-Eye Pete from Disney's Pepper Ann.
It's gonna be one helluva shiner.
