Real Madrid star thanks God for his life after suffering leg breaking tackle

The game of football is definitely not one for the fainthearted.

Real Madrid youngster, Endrick, was on the end of a rash tackle, as he came off the bench for a five-minute cameo in Palmeiras league game against Corinthians.

Endrick could have seen his leg destroyed in the dying seconds of the match, as he led a counter-attack for his team.

The young Brazilian released a teammate with an impressive pass, but was clattered with a nasty leg-breaking tackle from a defender, Maycon.

Maycon was sent off only after a VAR review, as Endrick groaned in pain.

Eventually, the teenager was fine, and he shared a picture of the tackle on Instagram, as he thanked God for his life.

He captioned: “I thank God for everything and all the deliverance in my life Ephesians 6 🙌🏾🙏🏾”
