Player gets injured BEFORE game even starts

Table of Contents

A bizarre incident happened ahead of a Norwegian game between Alta and Bossekop last week when a player ended up with six stiches, from a team-mate, before the game had even kicked off.

After the pre-match handshake, the players filed out and started doing some springy jumps as a final warm-up.

But the springing turned out to be a bit too springy as the back of Alta's Martin Mathisen's head caught Mathias Dahl Abelsen's chin, leaving the former bleeding and in agony on the ground.

The unfortunate Mathisen ended up in a hospital emergency room with six stitches in his head.
