A scary scene took place on Monday night reminding us all of the true dangers surrounding aerial clashes.

During the second half of Galatasaray’s 4-2 win over Orduspor, the match was interrupted by a head injury to Orduspor’s David Barral. Barral was left concussed after clashing heads with ex-Chelsea star Didier Drogba when the players challenged for a ball during a corner kick.

Medical personnel rushed the field and carted the Spanish player to a near hospital. In a touching and classy gesture, Drogba paid Barral a hospital visit, even though the Champions League hero was feeling the effects of the head clash himself:

Heads, you lose.

Marouane Fellaini seemed to lose his cool during Everton’s 1-1 draw with Stoke City on Saturday. He was caught apparently head-butting Stoke captain Ryan Shawcross.

The referee didn’t see his foul move, but the cameras did. Even his own boss condoned his actions.

Everton manager David Moyes said, ”I’ve seen it, it’s a terrible thing to do and I expect him to be punished. I’ve told him it’s not acceptable and whatever he gets, he and us deserve it.”

Fellaini was quick to apologize after the match, but he’ll likely get a lengthy suspension once the video is reviewed.
