A five-year-old Argentinian boy was crushed by two rugby players during a match, breaking his leg in the horrendous incident.
It happened in a match between Atletico Y Progreso and Monte Grande Rugby Club in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The boy, who is now recovering after the incident, was wiped out when a Monte Grande player tackled a Atletico Y Progreso player who was running at full tilt. Both of the men, who weighed over 14st, ploughed into the boy who was standing on the touchline.
The panicked players and onlookers rushed to help the boy in the immediate aftermath. He was taken to hospital and has since been put in a full leg cast after fracturing his femur.

The boy was the son of one of the coaches, according to news outlet Telefe Noticias. The club's authorities explained that the boy was returning from the toilet, which is why he was alone standing so close to the action.
"It was unfortunate. One player tackles another and they take the child with them."
"It is not the first time an accident like this has happened." said the Director of Monte Grande Rugby Club, 'Cococho' Alvarez.
