During a direct free-kick for Al Nassr yesterday, an unexpected incident occurred when Cristiano Ronaldo’s shot accidentally hit a cameraman who was adjusting his camera position behind the goalpost. The ball deflected off its intended path and struck the cameraman directly in the face, causing him to momentarily lose balance.
The impact of the ball on the cameraman’s face was undoubtedly a starting moment given the close proximity. However, fortunately, the cameraman’s injuries were limited to a temporary daze. The quick response of the on-site medical team assured that he received immediate attention and support.
After receiving medical assistance and being cleared by the attending doctors, the cameraman displayed resilience and professionalism by returning to his duties. Despite the unexpected mishap, his commitment to capturing the game continued undeterred.
