A pitchside cameraman was treated after being struck by Abdukodir Khusanov during Uzbekistan’s 1-3 defeat to Colombia in Mexico. According to L'Équipe, the collision followed a duel with Luis Diaz.

The incident occurred in the 34th minute on Wednesday night. Khusanov was attempting to cover a left-flank burst from Diaz, which came to nothing.

Unable to stop, the Manchester City centre-back, 1.86 metres and 84 kg, crashed into a camera operator positioned right by the touchline.

The cameraman fell, placed his camera on the ground, then clutched his left leg. He received medical attention and play resumed shortly after.

Six minutes later, Colombia took the lead through Daniel Muñoz, supplied by Diaz.
