Belgian World Cup player kicks ball right into his face
Sometimes you score, sometimes you kick a ball in your face.
During the World Cup
match between England and Belgium on Thursday, a Belgian player struck himself
in the face with a ball from his own kick. Michy Batshuayi went in for a
victory kick to celebrate Belgium's goal, but instead the ball bounced off the
goal post and hit him straight on. Batshauyi jogged away, holding his face and
probably hoping that nobody saw it.
We all saw it, Michy.
We all saw it.

Here's a slow motion
version so you an really see the unrelenting optimism Batshuayi had before
crushing his own dreams.
And a painfully
relatable gif to go along with it.
We've all experienced something as humiliating as
this, but definitely not in front of an international audience.

Scott Sterling: The man. The myth. The LEGEND!
ReplyDeleteStill the only video that has me laughing out loud
ReplyDeleteMaybe he now knows how it feels to be hurting.... ��
ReplyDeleteI guess that will make the 'Misplays of the Week', lol
ReplyDeleteTotal Scott Sterling move!! (:
ReplyDeleteBelgium’s Batshuayi with the greatest moment of the World Cup so far, possibly ever
ReplyDeleteMichy Batshuayi celebrating the Belgium goal by kicking the ball off the post and straight into his own face was bloody brilliant!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant from Batshuayi that #itsonmyheadsonnotoffmyheadson
ReplyDeleteHighlight of the game was Batshuayi kicking the ball into the goal post and smashing himself in the nose. Quality
ReplyDeleteBrilliant by Batshuayi... can’t hit the net from 2 inch’s... then gets a lucky bounce of his eyeball into the net ����
ReplyDeleteMain thing I'm taking from this game is that Batshuayi will definitely be included on Shane Richie's World Cup Bloopers VHS. #ENGBEL
ReplyDeleteI’ve clocked that Michy Batshuayi is actually the Belgian Danny Welbeck
ReplyDeleteThis game has been petering out to a lame conclusion for about 30 minutes now but I eagerly await the Michy Batshuayi “I hit myself in the face ������������������” post 2 minutes after the match ends.
ReplyDeleteBatshuayi with the highlight of the world cup
ReplyDeleteThe highlight of this whole game hasn’t even been Belgium scoring, it’s been more of Batshuayi hitting his head #ENGBEL
ReplyDeleteI'm just not sure how to feel. On one hand I wanted to win, or draw and finish top. One the other hand if Januzaj hadn't scored I wouldn't have witnessed Batshuayi smash the ball into his own face #ENGBEL
ReplyDeleteHaha lol rofl Batshuayi..... This man is simply hilarious #ENGBEL #WorldCup18
ReplyDeleteI’m surprised he didn’t try to get the goalpost sent off ?
ReplyDeleteWhat a peaceful world cup still . Was afraid it might be a world war but no . Is all love love
ReplyDeleteThis is why soccer is a joke. A professional player, standing in the goal, can't kick it in without smacking it off his own face. What's the final 1-1?
ReplyDeletePerhaps the good old fashioned hand shake with the scorer would have been safer!.
ReplyDeleteLol, this is the best laugh I've had all day
ReplyDeleteHe couldn’t kick it like Albanian Januzaj ����
ReplyDeletesurprised he didn't throw himself to the ground and roll over a few times.
ReplyDeleteretarded player >:)
