VIDEO: Felipe Melo with horrific two-footed tackle of Alexis Sanchez

Felipe Melo has never been known as an overly skilled player, despite his Brazilian heritage.

A midfield destroyer in the truest sense of the term, the Galatasaray man has struggled mightily to keep up with Arsenal's slick passing. His remedy to slow down the Gunners' attack? This horrendous two-footed tackle on Alexis Sanchez, which somehow was deemed worthy of only a yellow card by the referee.

The Chilean answered by scoring minutes later to give Arsenal a 3-0 lead in the opening half.
