In the world of football, injuries usually occur during rough collisions, heavy training, or intense games.
However, there are cases when athletes are sidelined in completely unexpected and unusual situations.
İdman.Biz presents a series of strange injuries suffered by football players:
John Stones - Victim of the Christmas Tree
Manchester City defender John Stones was injured while decorating a Christmas tree. The club did not provide details of the injury, but Pep Guardiola announced that the player was out indefinitely. Decorating the Christmas tree cost the footballer dearly.
Cole Palmer - The Result of Video Game Passion
Chelsea's star Cole Palmer got impatient during a short break while playing the computer game "EA Sports FC 26", and in anger, the footballer's finger hit the edge of the table and broke.
Marco Sportiello – Injury from a Chandelier
Milan's goalkeeper raised his arm while taking off his shirt in a hotel and touched the ceiling lamp. As a result, the player injured his hand and shoulder. Sportiello was out of the field for three months.
Santiago Cañizares – "Cologne Tragedy"
The injury suffered by the former goalkeeper of the Spanish national team may be the strangest on the list.
Santiago Cañizares dropped the cologne bottle after the shower. At that moment, while trying to catch the glass with his foot, the bottle exploded, cutting the footballer's tendon. Due to this injury, Cañizares missed the World Cup.
As you can see, injuries in football do not only happen on the field. Sometimes even the most ordinary everyday moment can cause a footballer to be out of games for a long time.
