Angry fan injures football player

[Deleted]

but I can't remember the last time a fan ran on the field and actually injured a player and it wasn't in football.

Monica Seles was stabbed with a knife on the tennis field. Nancy Kerrigan was hited with a club while skating.

Kerrigan wasn't a fan, and ya completely forgot about the Seles event. Got to love that the guy who stabbed Seles got zero jail time and only got probation and counseling because he was mentally disturbed.

For the "this only happens in football/lolsoccer" argument

You people are whats wrong with the internet and possibly spectatorship of football.

focusing on how the football player took a dive when some idiot ran onto the field and punched him in the neck.

You all make it sound like its the football players fault he got punched, for being a sissy.

Really? wtf is up with this violent behaviour. Its fucking ridiculous that a spectator could be allowed onto the field. people with urges to interupt a football match like that deserves to be shot, seriously. im all for death sentences to idiots. There is NO EXCUSE for that behaviour. Football has become more about fights between fanclubs than the sport itself.

Its part of football to take a dive, in the end it helps lower the bar to what is acceptable to throw at the enemy team, if people didnt take dives you'd see alot more violent clashes in sports. so taking a dive and getting a penalty for playing "rough" keeps the sport at a level where people dont get hospitalized.

but i guess that is what you want, to see people break their limps like a f***ing fail compilation on youtube.

Entertainment these days. wtf is wrong with a peacefull soccer game. where all the fighting is done by the rules on the field, by the professional players who do this for a living. and not some drunk johnny walking in from the spectator stands.

amen to this!

Just another reason why soccer is the lamest sport in the world. You'd never see a fan attack a football player in the US. Maybe because they'd get murdered.

You also forgot about:

You sir win the freaking internet.

I'm sure it may have hurt, but that guy milked the crap out of it. There is no way a punch like that is going to take someone out for 3 months. Maybe three minutes?

Such an act is really disgusting and shows an ill-spirit against the fair name of games.
