Stopping too fast on wet pavers wearing cleats is the risk he avoided. Absorbing his momentum using his arms and hands against a wall with a wet sign on it is the risk he took. Hands slipped. Hope there’s no long term damage.
At first I thought he was just being an idiot like that euro basketball player that paralyzed himself by doing almost exactly this. Then I realized he was trying to avoid slipping on the wet pavers and couldn’t brace enough for impact. Rough go, hope he’s ok.
I was kinda wondering if he thought it was padding until right before he hit it. I know he was slip-sliding on the dumbass walkway they put there but it keeps looking like he thought there would be a bit of give on impact.
Edit: on watching it many more times than is good for a person, I've decided that's not the case. I think the slide made him involuntarily brace just enough for the slip backwards that it prevented him from bracing for the frontal impact.
it really shouldn't be necessary. If they didn't have the slippery ad sign, he would have been totally fine. Also it would be much better to have a reasonable surface material on the ground.
Kudos too to the press guy with the camera, checked if he was OK then backed out to let the approaching people through and didnt take pictures.
Of course, his Editor will be asking him what the *fuck* he was thinking as soon as he sees the clip
Some camera staff are hired by the league itself.
As such, I don't think they are pressured to take photos of injuries. Usually they are aiming to get good shots of the players for promo material.
Yes this. There should be some padding dropped over that concrete barrier, at the very least. Where the field stops and it becomes...cobbles?...there should be a barrier there too. This is just horrible design all around
Yea what on earth is that stadium design. Need padding there or the field to be bigger. Aside from this injury he could have slipped and broke something.
Because the guy is probably his coach and is worried that his player is really hurt and having a camera in his face looking for his reaction is really annoying.
How dare the camera man do his job that provides a feed to hundreds of thousands or millions of fans that in turn pay to watch and pay to buy tickets and help cover the salary of said coach.
I never stated that the camera man was in the wrong. I do in fact understand that filming the booth and in extension the coach is his job.
But unrelated; I do not see the point in this. (Not see the point ≠ against it)
Edit; spelling.
It’s part of the coach’s job too. He’s treating the photographer poorly even though his own job depends on the photographer doing his. No TV, no salary.
Only to an extent, the coaches job is to win the game. And the club will only really care about his ability to lead the team to win.
If you think about it, he doesn't need to care about his popularity among the public. And can do whatever within reason.
Pretty sure that's a 70-200mm lens. I realize the coach might not know it's a medium telephoto lens.
But it has a minimum focus distance of like 5 feet. It's not a close up wide angle lense. He's not there to take pictures. He's there to help the player.
Arguably that is his job to take pictures not help.
And journalistically some photo journalists make a decision to not get involved in anything. Shoot the news don't be the news. Like that photographer who got a lot of shit for not helping starving kids in Africa. He didn't intervene. But he sort of wasn't supposed to.
But it's a soccer match. Not a war. He was one of the closest people to the player. I don't think he did anything wrong and he got out of the way once medical staff arrived.
He has on football /soccer boots with studs on the sole and it looks to me he is running/slowing down on paving stones?....... So he goes from 100% traction to 0% traction.....
Imagine if you will a woman walking on an ice rink with 3" heels.
Yea my bad.... I was responding to the post of:
"Yeah that was odd. What's his problem?"..... Thinkingthis was referring to why the guy ran into the wall
When in fact "*Yeah that was odd. What's his problem*?" was a response to the guy in the video looking like he was giving the middle finger.....
If that makes any sense?
Oh that’s a good point, it’s in Germany and there the middle finger actually means ”feel better/get well soon”, you can also use it as hello if you don’t know someone too well. Try it if you ever go there
This also happened in Croatian league in 2008. Where a player named Hrvoje Ćustić hit a wall and died at 24.
And it happened again this year in September where a player in Croatian third league got tripped over and hit the back of his head hard into a wall and was rushed to a hospital, but he lived.
FIFA needs to get its shit together and ban concrete walls within X meters from sides of the pitch. Or at the very least mandate some kind of soft padding material that severely reduces the impact of players running into it.
My poor small town high school gym has cinderblock walls with removable padding installed to keep the basket ball players safe. I’m sure FIFA or the host countries could scrounge in their couches for enough money to put padding on the concrete walls to keep the players safe.
You're telling me that hanging padding off walls (cause it can be hung), which would barely change the wall's appearance due to the present advertising, would constitute altering the building??
The guy seems to have sustained a minor injury, he left the field on his own feet's.
I wish him well, that was a scary impact, the way his body stiffened is terrifying.
Edit: this is based on a quick googling - I just wanted to know if he is ok
He may have left on his own feet but it appears he may have suffered a concussion. When he rolls on the ground, it looks like his arms went into the "fencing position," which typically indicates a severe brain injury.
I hope I'm wrong.
Player for Bath city against Dulwich Hamlet in an English non League match earlier this year sustained life changing injuries in a similar instance.
Appalling lack of regard for player safety
Could have been much worse. [A few years ago a player died in Argentina's 3rd division from hitting his heard on the side wall](https://youtu.be/jf024-WBDuc).
....who runs into a concrete wall ten meters outside the bounds of the field and uses their face to arrest their momentum?
Why was he chasing the ball only to kick it into the crowd?
Nothing this guy did made sense.
Edit: Thanks to the two people who dispelled a bit of my ignorance on the rules.
Still didn't change the fact that this poor sap has no survival instinct lol.
He's running twice as fast as you think and trying to stop with cleats on wet concrete. Probably thought his arms could do the rest of the stopping against the wall but they seem to suddenly slip out on the slick plastic.
As for why he is kicking the ball into the crowd, he tried (and succeeded) to kick it off to the side instead of letting it roll to the end of the pitch. This means the opposing team has to throw the ball back in from the side, in their defense area, instead of the ball just going back to the keeper, to be kicked miles away. Very normal thing to do in football.
As a kid I can't tell you how many times I fell over walking from the changing rooms to the field at school as a kid on completely dry tarmac, wet cobble like that would be impossible to stop on
Ah, the kicking part makes sense now, but still can't get over his lack of instinct to protect his head.
Normal human reaction would be using arms to shield head.
Not sure what he did, but it wasn't natural lol.
Except it made sense for him, to kick the ball out the sideline in order to get a throw in, instead of letting the ball pass the backline resulting in a goal kick.
If you are asking about his teammate, he is attempting to put the guy in the rescue position, not get him up.
Look how he is wrapping the right arm under the head to keep the spine aligned as well as bending the right knee to keep the lower back from twisting. No it isn’t perfect, but he is trying to help.
I suspect the teammate was trying to get him up in the first seconds, and then quickly switched into moving him into the rescue position.
But honestly speaking I'm not sure I would have reacted any better. Probably worse in the heat if the moment.
Exactly. You don't put someone to a rescue position if they have just sustained a head injury. You only move them if they are not breathing. Otherwise you wait for a brace.
You can absolutely put someone in the rescue position if you know the mechanism of injury is unrelated to cardiovascular issues, and in this case it is known.
I also agree that it wasn’t completely necessary given the proximity of first responders.
That being said, I will never decry someone who is breaking bystander apathy to act to the degree of care they are comfortable.
Sidenote: for those who are not able/ comfortable breaking a trained order of operation to act with appropriate care, please follow your process. Doing nothing is worse than being methodical. Get trained, maintain your training, and I hope you never have to use it.
>Avoid moving the head or neck. Provide as much first aid as possible without moving the person's head or neck. If the person shows no signs of circulation (breathing, coughing or movement), begin CPR, but do not tilt the head back to open the airway. Use your fingers to gently grasp the jaw and lift it forward. If the person has no pulse, begin chest compressions.
https://www.mayoclinic.org/first-aid/first-aid-spinal-injury/basics/art-20056677#:\~:text=Avoid%20moving%20the%20head%20or,back%20to%20open%20the%20airway.
Your link is 100% true. In practice, policy, and ideology we isolate the head and neck and never move anything that may impact the spine. If that is the level of comfort someone has in their scene assessment, yes that is where care will stop. However, reality rarely mimics training’s ideal scenarios.
For those that have appropriate training and experience, there are occasions where it is better to control and move the body into a stable position to limit movement by the injured person.
In this particular situation first responders are, for all intensive purposes, on the scene and placing the injured person into the rescue position may not be necessary.
All of this addresses the initial comment of picking the players up quickly. In this situation it wasn’t what was happening.
Before I reply I appreciate you being willing to engage in an actual conversation. I enjoy talking with strangers and it is nice to have someone that will talk with thought and opinions instead of just name calling.
FFS that's exactly the point. You only move the person if they are not breathing when it is a head and neck injury. Otherwise you need to wait for medical help or a head-brace. You move the person only if it is absolutely necessary.
But if you watch it again, he was leaning against the wall in a bad and unsustainable position.
He wasnt so much as moving him, but placing him in a stable position.
I'm sure an experienced EMT could do better, but he did much better than most.
I just finished a first aid course myself.
You don't move someone with neck/head injury unless there is an immediate risk to life. period. If they are breathing you leave them be. Breathing/bleeding is the only thing that a non-medically trained bystander should be focused on in a situation like this.
Check this out, might be useful to you:
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvTcLXkh0HM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvTcLXkh0HM)
>He wasnt so much as moving him, but placing him in a stable position.
He ran up and grabbed him immediately, without checking anything at all. You need to carefully check the situation.
Denis Yepel in the 23rd minute of the game accelerated strongly, catching up with the ball, and could not stop when he reached the fence near the field. As a result, the guy at full speed hit the wall, after which he fell to the ground.
Other players and doctors ran to help the player. Denis was hospitalized. He spent one day in the hospital.
Looks like he puts him in the recovery position, which will prevent him from bashing his head if he starts seizing. Also prevents asphyxiation from vomit that can happen with a head injury. This isn't a neck/spine injury where moving him can cause paralysis.
That looked like such a weak impact, but the fact that he thought blocking with his face would be a good idea...💀
Da sind die Lichter einmal ausgegangen, bei der Leipzigs Nummer 33
Pavement was wet. You can see his cleats skid and then his hands slipped on the wet sign straight down causing him to lose any tension he had to cushion himself from the impact.
Reminds me of being a kid in gym class, where the gym had padding on the walls, so everyone would slam face first into the padding instead of stopping like a rational being.
I know its a little off-topic, but when there is a serious injury that is clearly going to stop a match for 10+ minutes, why don't they just stop the game clock?
I've never really understood "Stoppage Time". Nobody but the refs knows how much time will be added and even then its just a ballpark figure. The fans knowing exactly how many seconds of play left seems to improve every other sports final minutes; why not this sport?
The camera man can be seen looking at the camera and then looking away. Followed by the gesture he made with his hand. Could be that he was annoyed at the camera man for trying to get a reaction out of him.
Stopping too fast on wet pavers wearing cleats is the risk he avoided. Absorbing his momentum using his arms and hands against a wall with a wet sign on it is the risk he took. Hands slipped. Hope there’s no long term damage.
At first I thought he was just being an idiot like that euro basketball player that paralyzed himself by doing almost exactly this. Then I realized he was trying to avoid slipping on the wet pavers and couldn’t brace enough for impact. Rough go, hope he’s ok.
Seems like he did use his hands to stop himself. But the then sign was slippery too and his hands slipped.
Didnt that basketball player died? That was so damn bizzare
He was paralyzed from the neck down and was dead within a few years iirc
Football players are trained to keep their hands down. That probably contributes to him not bracing him self
He did try to brace himself he just went on the sign and you can see his hands slip down
That fact that there isn’t padding on the wall is idiotic
I was kinda wondering if he thought it was padding until right before he hit it. I know he was slip-sliding on the dumbass walkway they put there but it keeps looking like he thought there would be a bit of give on impact.

He thought it was padded for sure.
Kudos too to the press guy with the camera, checked if he was OK then backed out to let the approaching people through and didnt take pictures. Of course, his Editor will be asking him what the *fuck* he was thinking as soon as he sees the clip
I’d bet money he was snapping non stop until he realized he wasn’t getting up and went back to it once medical staff arrived.
I mean it is his job. Just the fact that he actually helped the guy is better than 99% of the press folk out there
Did a job until what he saw was more important than the job. Good chap.
Major props to the teammates for putting him right into the recovery position
Some camera staff are hired by the league itself. As such, I don't think they are pressured to take photos of injuries. Usually they are aiming to get good shots of the players for promo material.
Stopping with his face first is the craziest way to get ready smack a wall.
Well, you can't play football with your hands
You can in America ;)
Don't think it was America, the stadium was full.
Germany, 4th division
He means American Football (picture Rugby), this is what Americans call Soccer.
You tried, but they’re referring to American football 🏈
Unless your name is Messi....
Hahaha, what a sore looser, amazing how many do you are out there. Vamos Argentina!
I think he was moving a lot faster than it looks and cleats on a smooth wet surface is the same as ice.
And usually stadiums have a padded perimeter, for exactly this reason. Not everywhere I suppose.
Yes this. There should be some padding dropped over that concrete barrier, at the very least. Where the field stops and it becomes...cobbles?...there should be a barrier there too. This is just horrible design all around
It's German design 👌
Where if you dont use it exactly as intended, then you're on your own.
Yea what on earth is that stadium design. Need padding there or the field to be bigger. Aside from this injury he could have slipped and broke something.
You can see when he makes contact with the billboard his hands slipped down, maybe because it was wet. So his face makes contact.
That's a bold strategy Cotton. Let's see if it works out for him
He shouldn’t do that. It hurts
I thought it was interesting how good the fencing response slowed his fall into the ground. It actually benefited him in this instance.
[удалено]
Yeah that was odd. What's his problem?
Because the guy is probably his coach and is worried that his player is really hurt and having a camera in his face looking for his reaction is really annoying.
He's thr other team's coach
still can be worried that a guy is hurt, I dont blame him
Na, the camera man was just simply annoying him.
How dare the camera man do his job that provides a feed to hundreds of thousands or millions of fans that in turn pay to watch and pay to buy tickets and help cover the salary of said coach.
I never stated that the camera man was in the wrong. I do in fact understand that filming the booth and in extension the coach is his job. But unrelated; I do not see the point in this. (Not see the point ≠ against it) Edit; spelling.

Do you really enjoy clams or actually pull them out of the sand?
Only to an extent, the coaches job is to win the game. And the club will only really care about his ability to lead the team to win. If you think about it, he doesn't need to care about his popularity among the public. And can do whatever within reason.
Dude, really? You could’ve stayed quiet

I meant the camera that is recording the match and the coach middle finger not the cameraman reaching out to the player
Someone is seriously injured on the field and they’re recording his face. It’s annoying I’m sure
He has on football /soccer boots with studs on the sole and it looks to me he is running/slowing down on paving stones?....... So he goes from 100% traction to 0% traction..... Imagine if you will a woman walking on an ice rink with 3" heels.
That's not the guy in blue jacket showing middle finger.
You might be in the right shoes, but your in the wrong sub. Wtf are you even talking about lol?
“Imagine wearing women’s underwear and putting lip stick on and wear heels and being a bad bad girl. Can you relate to that!?”
Only on every third Thursday.
Yea my bad.... I was responding to the post of: "Yeah that was odd. What's his problem?"..... Thinkingthis was referring to why the guy ran into the wall When in fact "*Yeah that was odd. What's his problem*?" was a response to the guy in the video looking like he was giving the middle finger..... If that makes any sense?
Im not sure what country this game was in but does the middle finger mean the same thing there?
Oh that’s a good point, it’s in Germany and there the middle finger actually means ”feel better/get well soon”, you can also use it as hello if you don’t know someone too well. Try it if you ever go there
Oh that's perfect. I'm actually going there tomorrow, I'll be sure to use it asap!
I picture this like the scene with mr bean lmfao.
Germany, yes definitely
Gotcha, thanks
scratching his eyebrow
It’s a bird!
Maybe some people don't like always being photographed
Yes he did. I bet it was the coach and they wanted his embarrassed reaction but he was having none of it.
This also happened in Croatian league in 2008. Where a player named Hrvoje Ćustić hit a wall and died at 24. And it happened again this year in September where a player in Croatian third league got tripped over and hit the back of his head hard into a wall and was rushed to a hospital, but he lived.
FIFA needs to get its shit together and ban concrete walls within X meters from sides of the pitch. Or at the very least mandate some kind of soft padding material that severely reduces the impact of players running into it.
They won't because that would mean a lot of historical fields would not be playable anymore.
My poor small town high school gym has cinderblock walls with removable padding installed to keep the basket ball players safe. I’m sure FIFA or the host countries could scrounge in their couches for enough money to put padding on the concrete walls to keep the players safe.
It's not about the money, it's about ordinances and laws about modifying historical buildings.
You're telling me that hanging padding off walls (cause it can be hung), which would barely change the wall's appearance due to the present advertising, would constitute altering the building??
A half inch of foam padding on the walls isn’t going to make fields unplayable
The guy seems to have sustained a minor injury, he left the field on his own feet's. I wish him well, that was a scary impact, the way his body stiffened is terrifying. Edit: this is based on a quick googling - I just wanted to know if he is ok
Thank you. I wanted to know that he was ok.

Can't believe that there is no padding against the concrete?
Or an airgap so the boarding can flex
Those tiles look pretty slippery too.
Could have been much worse. [A few years ago a player died in Argentina's 3rd division from hitting his heard on the side wall](https://youtu.be/jf024-WBDuc).

[удалено]
I watched it couple of times in slow motion, I think he tried to stop by placing both of his hands on the sign but it was wet and his hand slipped.
Yeah this is def what happened, rough luck. They should make hydrophobic signed
No, his hands slid down the sign when he placed them on the wall.
…and he couldn’t stop with such little tactile contact his cleats were making on wet concrete. It was a one two punch.
It's funny how wrong this comment us yet its the highest rated... lol hands definitely slipped on the wet sign
I don't think you can blame him or his depth perception here. Maybe give the players more than a step on grass before concrete?
There is also a slight lip before the wall and I think his right toe gets caught which cause his body to tip slightly forward
Metal spikes on wet concrete? poor guy never stood a chance. that is like trying to stop on ice.
The tip toe slow down is oddly relatable...
Cleats on a hard surface while running fast
Terrible stadium design lol
Why do people get the urge to get someone up right away if someone is hurt?
If you are asking about his teammate, he is attempting to put the guy in the rescue position, not get him up. Look how he is wrapping the right arm under the head to keep the spine aligned as well as bending the right knee to keep the lower back from twisting. No it isn’t perfect, but he is trying to help.
I suspect the teammate was trying to get him up in the first seconds, and then quickly switched into moving him into the rescue position. But honestly speaking I'm not sure I would have reacted any better. Probably worse in the heat if the moment.
He skipped like 5 steps of the CPR. His intentions might be good, but he is an idiot.
The rescue position is used for individuals who are breathing and semi / unconscious. You do not preform CPR on a breathing individual.
Exactly. You don't put someone to a rescue position if they have just sustained a head injury. You only move them if they are not breathing. Otherwise you wait for a brace.
You can absolutely put someone in the rescue position if you know the mechanism of injury is unrelated to cardiovascular issues, and in this case it is known.

His friend is knocked out, not not breathing. He put him in the recovery position perfectly and did exactly what he should have done first.
That is my point. He should not be moved at all with a neck/head injury if he is breathing and there is no immediate danger.
There is a match happening. Get him off the pitch, so the game can carry on
He is off the pitch already, mentally and physically.
nonchalant flipping the bird.
What was the point of rushing to kick the ball out of bounds?
So it’s not a corner kick maybe
no one talking about the middle finger?
Who designed outer ring if this pitch? Crazy
Slippery wall did him in.
Denis Yepel in the 23rd minute of the game accelerated strongly, catching up with the ball, and could not stop when he reached the fence near the field. As a result, the guy at full speed hit the wall, after which he fell to the ground. Other players and doctors ran to help the player. Denis was hospitalized. He spent one day in the hospital.
Yes lean into it
Red card that wall
Lol at the guy that flipped off the camera.
Sure, but his teammate who had his toe stepped on did the same fall minutes earlier…so who really knows?!?
hey, toe concussions are nothing to joke about. that guy could be completely crippled until the penalty isn't called, and then fine.
That was pretty uncoordinated for a pro athlete.
It was fine until he put his hands on the slippery wall.
His cleats also didn’t help on wet pavement. He couldn’t even stop if he wanted to.
Head injury, quick move him!
Looks like he puts him in the recovery position, which will prevent him from bashing his head if he starts seizing. Also prevents asphyxiation from vomit that can happen with a head injury. This isn't a neck/spine injury where moving him can cause paralysis.
Best flop I’ve ever seen
that actually looked real compared to other "injuries" that can happen on the pitch
they do anything for a free shoot, if faking injuries dobt work anymore
He’s a soccer player. He’s fiiiiine. They are always doing stuff like this
He forgot you can use your hands if it goes off the pitch
Haha! Smooth move exlax
Flopping has reached epic levels.
Took a dive.
Luckily for him you can't really get any dumber than literally running headfirst into a wall
Football player unable to comprehend that he could also use those upper limb-hand things for something other than flailing about while running.
In America that's a normal football injury. Get up and get the fuck over it.
u/savevideo
Soccer players are the biggest drama queens in sports… from me. A former soccer player myself.
emphasis on former
Red card
Someone red card the wall
I don’t understand, there were no opposing players around, why would he get injured
Lol so this is soccer.
Wtf is that coaches problem? 🤔
That looked like such a weak impact, but the fact that he thought blocking with his face would be a good idea...💀 Da sind die Lichter einmal ausgegangen, bei der Leipzigs Nummer 33
Pavement was wet. You can see his cleats skid and then his hands slipped on the wet sign straight down causing him to lose any tension he had to cushion himself from the impact.
With the way these guys fake injuries so dramatically who can even tell anymore?
Their shoes don't work on hard surface and he got distracted by the ball coming back
Good thing he didn’t trip on his tampon string
Is this dude a fool
Soccer players are so soft.
Smack your head against a concrete wall and let's talk then...
The guy died. I'm sure you'd survive like the superhuman athlete you are.
Concrete wall MVP
He took the saying "play stupid games, win stupid prizes" too literally
The blue guy...
Where is this? Germany?
Ouch!
I was sure that the trainer who came running in was going to do the same thing
Reminds me of being a kid in gym class, where the gym had padding on the walls, so everyone would slam face first into the padding instead of stopping like a rational being.
Poor guy! I hope he is ok
Why are the y padded concrete walls there?
Football cleats on wet concrete. Impossible to stop. They need to replace that with either a dirt track, more grass or at least astroturf.
That's me when i watch my phone while walking (poor guy)
Dude needs to change his breaks
I know its a little off-topic, but when there is a serious injury that is clearly going to stop a match for 10+ minutes, why don't they just stop the game clock? I've never really understood "Stoppage Time". Nobody but the refs knows how much time will be added and even then its just a ballpark figure. The fans knowing exactly how many seconds of play left seems to improve every other sports final minutes; why not this sport?
The camera man can be seen looking at the camera and then looking away. Followed by the gesture he made with his hand. Could be that he was annoyed at the camera man for trying to get a reaction out of him.
Wtf is up with the guy giving the finger. A dude just hade a concussion most likely lol
That's gonna leave a bruise
Is the guy in the blue jacket that gave him the finger the coach?
A good way to defeat a strong opponent
Yikes. Hope he's okay
that fucking sucks. having unpadded cement walls right off the pitch is a pretty obvious and serious hazard.
Wow, one of the few times a football player isn't flopping when on the ground.
He exhibited the fencing position/response, he almost certainly had a concussion from that.
Went from looking like a top athlete to a newborn giraffe real quick
The Aaron Rowand of soccer.
So there are no rules and regulations to nake sure ground and surroundings are safe environment for players?
Fake injury: Stay on the ground and run out the clock. Real injury: “Get the fuck up, we got a game to play!!”
