Iran suffered a heavy blow inside the first ten minutes of their World Cup 6-2 defeat to England.
Goalkeeper Alireza Beiranvand came off worse in a head clash with one of his own players – and eventually coming off the field as well.
Beiranvand rushed off his line to slap at a dangerous cross from the England captain, Harry Kane, and careened head-on into one of his own defenders, who was backtracking towards the mouth of the goal.
In a stoppage that lasted almost ten minutes, medics examined the keeper, who seemed determined to stay on despite the risk of concussion, and even though he seemed visibly disoriented.
“Common sense has prevailed,” commentator Martin Tyler said as Beiranvand appeared to finally leave the field. But he was actually just grabbing a new jersey.
