R.I.P. Hrvoje Ćustić

Unfortunately sport can be as tragic and devastating as it is wonderful and uplifting. Hrvoje Custic, a winger from Croatian club Zadar, died on Thursday after going head first into a concrete wall during a league game last weekend. He was just 24 years old. A sad occasion is made even sadder in that this could have been avoided, as the concrete wall was just two meters from the touchline. A matter surely due for reflection another day, but now is only a time for mourning.

Rest in peace.
