As a footballer, you have to keep your eyes everywhere. Don’t think so? Then you haven’t reckoned with the medical cars in Ecuador yet.

During the second-division match between El Nacional and LDU Portoviejo (0:1), a medical vehicle ran into away player Edison Caicedo on the pitch. While the coaches and staff were beside themselves, Caicedo then collapsed to the ground in obvious pain.

What made it especially bizarre: the medic was in the middle of transporting an injured player off the field. Despite the collision, Caicedo was able to continue after a short treatment break.

In future, he’ll probably take a second look to make sure there isn’t a car coming around the corner onto the grass after all.
