The injury occurred in the process of a challenge from Vancouver defender Jonathan Leathers, though the tackle appeared clean and it would appear as though the injury might have come as a result of Ferreira's foot getting caught in the turf. It's unknown how long he might be out.
No matter the cause, this is a huge blow for FC Dallas and in the wake of Seattle Sounders midfielder Steve Zakuani's broken leg, this was as bad a weekend for injuries MLS has ever seen.
