On January 2nd, AC Milan had a friendly match against AL Ahli in Dubai. In the 80th minute, Robinho was jogging out of bounds to prepare to catch the ball that was coming his way. Looking to his left, he didn’t see the camera man whose camp out was so close to the pitch. At the last second, he saw the camera and jumped, bashing his knee into the lens.
Watching this video makes you think, how un-advanced soccer’s regulations are around the rest of the world. You will never see anything like this in Serie A, EPL or LFP or even smaller leagues like MLS for example. There has been a lot of controversy on the rules of soccer because of the kind of mistakes that occurred during the world cup. This is definitely a rule that must change, there is barely and room for throwing in the ball. And on top of the, camera man is sitting there, not standing which would allow him to jump out of the way. Robinho could now miss the next few games, because of a meaningless friendly.
