Football is never known to be a game where things would go in a very sophisticated manner. We have numerous instances of situations escalating inside the pitch and turning ugly. Today’s video makes us witness one such instance where a full-fledged brawl on the soccer pitch ended in a player suffering from seizures!
As shocking as it sounds, the attacker too, could not fathom what exactly transpired with the athlete. In fact, the player who suffered from seizures at the end was the same person who initiated the fight in the first place. Let’s take a detailed tour of what happened and break down the video further below.

The video was uploaded by Fight Haven on Twitter, recently rebranded as X. In the thirty-three seconds long video, the scene opens with a backdrop of a soccer field. Several players are seen taking different drills in what appeared to be a practice session. However, soon, our attention was captured by a couple of athletes in the middle who had an aggressive attitude.
One of the players, wearing a black t-shirt with black track pants was seen attacking another athlete. The other guy was wearing a grey hoodie along with black pants. He was also sporting white sports shoes. As he received several MMA-like kicks on his legs, the athlete wasted no time hitting back. In one swift move, he delivered a punch that led to the one in the black outfit getting knocked out on the ground.
Unfortunately, the incident didn’t end there. After falling to the ground, the athlete was seen having terrible seizures. He was shaking with his hands positioned abnormally. Such a scene freaked out the others and even the guy who punched him came to check.

This incident reminds us of the most memorable instance when Neymar broke his back during the 2014 FIFA World Cup and Zidane’s infamous headbutt during the 2006 FIFA WC final that eventually cost France the title. Even though these incidents happened on the International level, plenty of such occurrences happen daily on much smaller levels too.
