Well this just wasn't very nice.
During a practice session, 30-year-old Club América striker Darwin Quintero was caught on video attempting to hit ESPN Deportes reporter Marcelino Fernandez in the back of the head with a soccer ball. He was close, but thankfully he missed -- although not but much.
If you look closely in the back, you can see Quintero watch the path of the ball as it sails by Fernandez's head before spinning around in disappointment as if to say "oh, that was close!" Fernandez is an absolute champion here by the way, as the man continued through his report like literally nothing had happened. Now that takes nerves.
Shortly after the incident, Club América released a statement saying that Quintero would be sanctioned by team for his actions.
Unfortunately not all reporters are as lucky ad Fernandez. Some fail to get out of the way and the results are kind of brutal.
