Maybe they should've stretchered him off - it must be a DREADFUL injury, getting hit in the leg by a soccerball. You know those hamstrings can be damn sensitive.
believe me, it can be painfull, especially when the ball is wet. And if the shot was from a guy like batistuta you probably can't walk for about a week. [/QUOTE]I don't know, johnny...the ball wasn't even kicked to him that hard. Heading a corner would have probably hurt more. Then again, I play rugby - little things like balls getting kicked into our hips aren't really in the same pain factor league as getting tackled hard by a 110 kg forward.
