This unusual situation took place in the Canadian Premier League, during the duel between Valor FC and HFX Wanderers. And although it is a lower level league, the images went around the world because they are inexplicable. No one knows for sure what happened there, but it has given rise to all kinds of speculation.
20 minutes into the game had elapsed, when the figures of Valor FC triangulated in such a way that they created an unbeatable chance to score the opening score. However, when everything was ready to shout the goal, his fans and the players themselves were left wanting.
What happened?
Alessandro Riggi had passed the rival goalkeeper and the ball was regarding to cross the line, but suddenly, when he was running to embrace himself… his own teammate, William Akio, cleared the ball!
Quickly his companions asked him for explanations. The HFX Wanderers players looked at each other, puzzled, unable to understand. And Akio didn’t say anything. He was waiting there, standing.
“We’re not sure what just happened! We, uhhh, we’re just not going to talk regarding this,” they said from the club’s account.
Meanwhile, his fans elaborated all kinds of theories. For example, that Akio made an internal conflict visible. Others, however, tried to excuse it and said that it was a mistake… but what a mistake!
The player, in any case, has not yet spoken. And luckily for him, his team finally won by the minimum.
