The friendly international fixture between England and Brazil got off to an impetuous start and Jamie Vardy got a tad carried away, showing Dani Alves his studs early on.

Vardy gave the PSG defender a warm welcome to Wembley, with a strong challenge that endangered the striker's presence in the game... and Alves' knee.

Brazil's captain for the day had to be treated by medical staff before getting up to play, visibly in pain.
