Former Lyon man, Juninho is now plying his trade with New York Red Bulls. The Brazilian who was famed for his amazing free kicks during his time in France showcased his accuracy with the boot against Sporting Kansas last night.

In the 90th minute of the game, possibly frustrated at being 1-0 down at home and having to endure to keeper, Jimmy Nielsen's time wasting his clipped the ball towards to keeper. It only hit Nielsen in the arm though you wouldn't know that from his reaction. He went down like he had been hit with a ball made of solid metal.

Juninho received a red card for the incident, there have been no updates so far on the health of Jimmy Nielsen. We fear the worst.
