Wolves piled the misery onto Mikel Arteta as they went on to win last night’s exciting Premier League tie 2-1
However, the game was tainted after Mexican striker Jimenez clashed with Luiz inside the box which resulted in the pair both needing urgent medical attention.
Jimenez came off far worse than the Arsenal defender and after over 10-minutes of laying inside the box out cold, the attacker required immediate hospital attention as he was rushed out of the stadium.
In light of Sunday’s horror clash, Luiz was quick to take to his social media after the match and post a classy message of support to the Wolves marksman.

That was not a clash of heads, it was reckless play from a reckless player… he’s done it before, whether with his head or feet….. he should have been sent off.. if that was a tackle using feet, he would have gone….
I’m disgusted with him, his bad attitude and now trying to atone for his thuggish behaviour! the sooner he leaves English football the better!
To be fair Martin, the incident regardless of how you perceived it to be, was a clash of heads.
There isn’t another other way we can really refer to it as.
Totally agree. The whole conversation is revolving around concussion protocol, and Luiz is getting the same amount of sympathy as a player he assaulted. Every time I see the replay it is a red card. Jimenez goes straight up, and gets the ball, and Luiz comes flying in and snaps his head directly into Raul’s face. He may not have intended a fractured skull, but his intent was to blast Raul, not get the ball. No one is talking about that because he has a bandage on his head?
