WHAT HAPPENED?
The Brazilian was sent sliding off the pitch at the Etihad Stadium after a challenge from Salford defender Curtis Tilt, crashing into the pitch-side photographers. Tilt at first made a disparaging gesture towards Savinho but after seeing him fall down he went over to help his opponent, fishing him out with the help of a photographer and helping him back up on to the pitch.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Tilt's sporting gesture was not appreciated by the winger, however, as he shoved the Salford captain and refused to shake his hand as he went back to take his position on the pitch. City made light work of Salford, the League Two club owned by Manchester United legends who were playing in the third round of the FA Cup for the first time, and were 5-0 up after an hour.
