Carlos Tevez breaks goalkeeper's jaw with flying knee

Published Feb. 23, 2016 11:44 a.m. ET

Carlos Tevez is not known for timidity. He did break a player's leg last year, after all.

But this latest incident in a Boca Juniors game against Newell's Old Boys is just brutal.

Tevez flew towards goal in search of the ball and collided with Newell's goalkeeper Luis Ezequiel Unsain.

As you might expect, things got ugly. Take a look:

Even the photos capture the impending crash:

Unsain got Tevez's knee right to the jaw ...

and was carted off the field.

He later underwent surgery for a double fracture and could be out for 6 weeks. 

Even though it is Tevez we're talking about, and as brutal as the collision was, we can't really say it's anything more than an accident.
