Jorginho Leaves Griezmann Needing Treatment After Nasty Two-Footed Tackle On The Barcelona Star

Jorginho has left football fans stunned after his brutal two-footed tackle on Antoine Griezmann during a pre-season friendly.

Barcelona are playing Chelsea in a friendly match in Japan and the Brazilian-born midfielder wasted no time to get in the thick of the action.

He went crashing into a 50-50 tackle with Griezmann as he left the Barcelona new boy clutching his knee in a painful collision.

Tammy Abraham, who enjoyed a prolific spell on loan at Aston Villa last season, opened the scoring in the 34th minute.

But Jorginho's nasty lunge on Griezmann was the talk of the first half. Here's some reaction from Twitter:
