Harry Kane takes a karate kick to the face

We’re not sure what Bruno Alves was thinking.

Roy Hodgson won't be thrilled that England is spending most of their most critical Euro 2016 warmup match facing 10 men. He'll be less thrilled that the reason his team is facing 10 men is because Portugal center back Bruno Alves attempted to decapitate Harry Kane with a karate kick to the face.

Kane, notably, broke his nose this winter and was forced to spend a decent chunk of the Premier League season wearing this extremely dorky-looking mask.

Thankfully, Kane does not appear to have broken his nose this time, or sustained a concussion, or anything else that would prevent him from starting for England this summer. Portugal will be reconsidering Alves’ starting role, though.
