WATCH Thiago Silva nasty career-ending fall after collision vs RB Salzburg.

 That fall from Thiago Silva was one that would have ended his career, but thankfully, it isn't bad as hoped. 

Chelsea would have witnessed what would have been a disastrous end to Thiago Silva's career after a nasty fall in an attempt to clear a header against RB Salzburg. 

The nasty incident which took place in the 83rd minute saw RB Salzburg's Simic lean into Thiago Silva as he rises to head clear, and creates an arc for the Brazilian to crash to the ground.

It's a really nasty landing for the 38-year-old, who - thankfully - looks nothing more than winded.

There were quite a few nervous onlookers holding their breath there.

The fall had gotten many Chelsea fans including Thiago Silva's wife, Belle Silva reacting to it.

Nasty landing for Thiago Silva but he is back on his feet. Dangerous play from Sesko I thought.
