AfCoN: Ethiopia Keeper Completely Poleaxes Zambia Striker, Injures Himself, Sent Off While Being Stretchered Off (Video)
By Chris Wright
In which Ethiopian ‘keeper Jemal Tassew poleaxes himself in the act of ‘Harald Schumacher-ing‘ Zambian striker Chisamba Lungu, only to be red-carded while being stretchered off the pitch for treatment…
Love how the referee holds back the card, re-pocketing it at one point so it could be brandished with maximum dramatic impact. Very nicely done Sir.

The keeper definately came off worst in this collision!!!
Not so sure the referee put the card back in his pocket to maximize dramatic effect. Looked more to me that he wanted to avoid a prolonged argument with the Ethiopian players.
