Celebrations are par for the course during football matches. One has seen players running into the stands, and one has also witnessed stars removing their jerseys after scoring a goal for their respective teams. But have you ever seen a player falling into a tunnel in the middle of his celebration? Well, well, that happened recently. A Brazilian defender, Jacy Maranhao, while playing for Coritiba, was made to endure a bizarre twist to his goal celebration. The cameras picked him jumping over the advertising boards and accidentally falling into a tunnel at the Couto Pereira Stadium.
Key Factors
Coritiba, however, still managed to secure the points, eventually beating Chapecoense 2-1. There was an additional sting to the incident. Jacy’s header did not ultimately count, with the goal overturned following a VAR review.
