The 70-minute game was temporarily halted after the defender fell awkwardly while challenging for a header with James McConnell and Will Wright.
And after landing on his hand to break his fall it was clear Dossena had suffered a very nasty injury.
Even LFCTV commentator John Bradley was left horrified and apologised to any watching fans who were “having their lunch”.
He said : “That’s a nasty landing. We might need a little stoppage here to get the medical team on.
“Well yes there you go, he’s dislocated his finger.”
Co-commentator Natasha Dowie then said: “Woah that’s not nice.”
Bradley added: “Apologies if you are just trying to have your lunch or if you’re in, who knows, San Diego having a very early breakfast.
“Sometimes you just see things that make you squirm.”
