Coritiba Defender Injures Ankle After Falling Into Tunnel During Goal Celebration
During a Brazilian top-flight match between Coritiba and Chapecoense, defender Jacy Maranhao scored a goal in the 41st minute and celebrated by jumping over advertising boards. He accidentally fell into an open tunnel near the pitch, injuring his ankle. Although he initially continued playing, Maranhao was later substituted due to the injury. The goal was subsequently disallowed after a VAR review ruled it offside. The incident drew attention for its unusual nature and the player's injury.
