Manchester City defender Danilo left the field in tears during Brazils 1-0 win over Argentina in Saudi Arabia as he handed Pep Guardiola an injury blow.
The 27-year-old full-back was forced off in the 53rd minute after rolling his ankle and was wheeled away on a medical truck.
Clearly devastated at his misfortune, Danilo broke down in tears before being replaced by Liverpool ace Fabinho.
Danilo has only featured in one game under Pep Guardiola – a 3-0 win in the EFL Cup over Oxford – and his chances of more football will now be hindered after this latest injury blow.
He was utterly distraught by the recurring problem, having just recovered from an ankle issue.
The same injury forced him out of Brazils World Cup campaign in Russia and saw him fail to be fit for Citys pre-season tour.

While it was bad news for Danilo, his contrymen did seal a win with a 93rd minute header from Miranda sealing the win over their bitter South American rivals.
The Inter Milan centre-half rose highest to nod home a corner from Neymar to secure a scrappy win for the Brazilians.
