As for embarrassing injuries, LKS Lodz defender Maciej Dąbrowski, who seems to break his nose while kneeling in the face, is right up there.
In fact, it’s possible that Darius Vassell is using a Black and Decker drill to remove a bulb from his fingernail and Kirk Broadfoot scalding while boiling an egg.
In Poland this weekend, staff deemed Dąbrowski’s injury serious enough to replace him in the match against Arka Gdynia.
Dąbrowski, who also hit Adam Deja when he fell to the ground, has only been with the club since December 2019 and it is unknown how long he will be missing.
Lodz ended up saving a point in the match when Ricardo Guimarães scored in overtime to make it 1-1.
But despite the chaos of the country’s first division, there was a magical moment in the third division of GKS Katowice.
The inventive corner, which came immediately from the training ground, led to a well-worked goal by Adrian Blad.
“It certainly gives us a lot of satisfaction,” said manager Rafal Gorak.
“We always try to devote time to surprise our rivals.”
