Pics: Michael Babatunde breaks arm after blocking shot from Onazi

We saw 22 year old Super Eagles midfielder Michael Babatunde taken off in the second half of yesterday's game against Argentina with his arm in a cast but some of us didn't really know it was that serious.

Onazi was aiming to score a goal with the long-range shot but the ball cannoned into Babatunde's arm.
