EFL League One side Charlton Athletic‘s goalkeeper Joe Wollacott was injured when the goal fell on him during a training session with the Ghana national team at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi.
The 26-year-old goalkeeper was training in preparation for an Africa Cup of Nations match against Angola when the moveable goal inexplicably fell on him.
Joe Wollacott, who narrowly avoided a strike to the head and was treated swiftly by medical personnel, fortunately sustained no serious wounds and will be able to play against Angola.
Goalkeeper Joseph Wollacott “limped off during training after suffering a soft tissue contusion to the big toe of his right foot,” according to the Ghana Football Federation. He received quick evaluation from the medical staff and emergency care.
