A completely bizarre scene unfolded in Ecuador during a second-division match between Liga de Portoviejo and El Nacional. Midfielder Edison Caicedo was unexpectedly struck by a medical assistance cart in the middle of the game.
It may sound amusing, but the incident could have had far more serious consequences. The accident occurred in the 71st minute as the medical vehicle was returning after transporting an injured player off the field. While speaking with his coach near the touchline, Caicedo failed to notice the cart approaching and was hit forcefully.
