Former All Blacks fly-half Lima Sopoaga has shared brutal 'burns' that he sustained whilst playing on a 4G pitch.
The former Wasps man now plies his trade for Lyon in the Top 14, and hasn't played for the All Blacks since he came off the bench against Wales in 2017, following his transfer to the English Premiership.
The incident occurred in a match between Lyon and Toulon last weekend. The game was played at Lyon's Matmut Stadium, which has synthetic turf.
