I just expected to see a river of blood with such a wound. Even seconds after it's been wiped or cleaned.

Something like this:

Would guess because it's more of a puncture than a cut may have taken slightly longer for all the blood to come out. Guessing this image is within seconds of it happening.

Glad it's not a broken bone or ACL or something.

I thought it was more serious at first with Saka shaking his head and looking visibly upset

So we've probably all seen it. But I need to know, in my quest for knowledge, why is there no blood?

Hopefully Drs Saddlebrains & GIMOC can explain.
Takes a few seconds for significant bleeding to start (unless it hits a major vessel) because there's hardly any pressure in the capillaries that would have been broken here. By the time the medics got to him there would have been a bit more blood...

Also you get a relatively high density of blood vessels close to the skin surface to help with temperature regulation, and obviously loads very deep to supply major organs etc, but not really many around places like the outside of the knee joint as there isn't much that needs a good supply of blood cells around there 👍

This is the content I wanted to learn. Thanks.

Though will say the photo above was taken when the medical staff were with him, you can see their blue shorts.

Out of interest who took the photo and how was it leaked. Personally if it was me with that injury I wouldnt be to happy if one of the medical staff at posted it on social media ?

Yeah you're right actually! Interesting tbf - you can see a bit of blood pooling at the top of the wound (or is that just a shadow?)

Bet that was painful when the adrenaline wore off. Poor Tatsu, his luck is terrible.

Reminds me (oddly) of when I almost sliced my left index finger to the bone in a darkroom at Henley College in 2000. Some swine had nabbed the film can opener so dickhead here thought ‘ah, sod it, I’ll use scissors…’

Yeah, it didn’t end well. The tutor taking the photography class nearly fainted whilst saying: ‘don’t worry, I’m a first aider…’

There we are, nice little story for you all on a Wednesday evening, to take your mind off Tatsu. 🤣

Is that a fact, I had a pretty bad cut on my wrist. I could see all the veins and what not. No blood for 10 or so seconds which I didn't expect, now I know!

Yeah pretty much! I'm sure a surgeon could give a more detailed answer but that's the gist of it!
