Borussia Dortmund goalkeeper Mitchell Langerak had a painful Champions League debut on Wednesday, as he chipped his teeth after a nasty collision with the goalpost.
The 25-year-old Australian made an unexpected Champions League debut against Napoli after Roman Weidenfeller was sent off just before halftime.
Midway through the second half, Langerak was helpless to stop a wonderful Lorenzo Insigne free-kick from flying in the top corner.
However, few paid attention to the fact that the goalkeeper smacked his face in the post when failing to stop the golazo, leaving the shot-stopper with two chipped front teeth.
Langerak then posted a picture of his broken smile on Instagram with the comment: "Off to get my 'teef' fixed! Pfosten 1 - Langerak 0".
