Mistaking Face for Ball can have Ugly Consequences

And the award for the most spectacularly awful (but fun to watch) tackle of the weekend goes to the video above. It took place during the derby between Spartak Moscow and FC Moscow. I think it is fair to say that Moscow hasn’t seen a hit like that one since the city’s last mafia killing. For a slightly more beautiful approach to the game, check out the classic goal below from the great Russian midfielder Aleksandr Mostovoi.
