Goalkeeper Fakes Being Unconscious To Avoid A Red Card

This video has been out since last year and it boggles me how it hasn’t spread around quicker. It is so bizarre yet so brilliant. In 2015, during a match between Barcelona SC and Atletico Nacional, Maximo Banguera, goalkeeper for Barcelona SC, committed a foul against an opposing player. Banguera was set to receive a red card for his actions but instead earned himself a nomination for flop of the year.

It may not be the best way to avoid punishment but he gets an A for effort.
