If Spanish matador Fernando Cruz ever has children, he'll have doctors at the Valencia bullring to thank after he suffered a double goring.
Cruz, 25, is recovering in hospital after the second bull of Tuesday's corrida caught him in the upper thigh, throwing him into the air, and gored him in the groin once he hit the ground.
Newspapers reproduced the eye-watering bulletin issued by surgeons at the bullring after a two-hour operation and film of the incident was played on the main evening news.
"Fernando Cruz is suffering from two horn wounds of 25 centimeters in length each. One involves the fibers of the abductor muscle and dissects the femoral artery, the other involves the scrotal area and eviscerates both testicles."

I wince in pain thinking about the poor guy's "bad day at the office."
I'm a woman, but no sentence should ever include "scrotal" and "evicerate".
Is that bull-fighting action or "action" [wink, wink] action?
As long as their out, he might as well get a lock-box to put keep them in.
LOL
Too bad. If you want to play silly games most of us outgrew in childhood, you take the consequences. What a dope and what a dopey alleged sport/exhibition/display.
