After clashing heads with a Dutch player, Javier Mascherano couldn’t even remain on his feet.

 

Yet, Mascherano is still playing. Since I have no way to confirm that Mascherano suffered a concussion (it certainly looks like he did), I don’t want to make any blind accusations regarding FIFA’s handling of head injuries … so I’ll let others do that for me.
