Soccer Player Apparently Stabbed In Eyeball After Soft Slap To Neck

The business of cataloging awful (and sometimes admirable) injury performances in soccer games is an important one, and we do not take it lightly. Also not apparently taken lightly: Incidental contact to Lille's Aurélien Chedjou's neck. The contact somehow automatically transported to the Cameroonian's eyeball and left him writhing in agony on the pitch during Lille's 1-0 loss to Inter Milan last night. Chedjou was back on the field seconds after he was helped off.

Accidental sniper Giampaolo Pazzini—who scored the only goal of the game—was not punished for this play, because it was bullshit.

H/T CP.
