The midfielder’s ankle rolled under him after tackling Antoine Semenyo and he collapsed on the pitch in agony.
He let out a piercing cry as the severity of his injury soon became apparent.
His teammates were horrified by the injury and put their hands to their heads in horror.
Play was immediately stopped and the referee hastily waved Forest’s medical team onto the pitch.
They quickly went to help the fallen Danilo, and the stewards covered him with an improvised tent.
After eight minutes of treatment, Danilo’s damaged leg was fixed and he was taken off the field.
Both sets of fans at the City Ground applauded the 23-year-old as he was taken off and sent to hospital.
Numerous football fans took to social media and wished Danilo – who caught the eye of Manchester United – a speedy recovery.
One wrote on X: “Thinking of Danilo, who suffered a terrible injury.”
Another said, “Pray for Daniel, Jesus. He’s not looking good.”
And another said, “Oh my God, that’s absolutely horrible for Danilo.
“I wish him a speedy recovery.”
One noted: “Our thoughts are with Danilo from Nottingham Forest who appears to have suffered a season-ending injury during the first leg.”
Another announced: “Get well soon, Danilo.”
Danilo’s visibly upset teammates tried to refocus after his horror exit.
And they settled the game eight minutes later through striker Chris Wood, who struck from inside the penalty area after Neto deflected Callum Hudson-Odoi’s shot straight into his path.
However, Bournemouth pulled one back through Antoine Semeny to share the points.
