Argentine soccer player gets soccer cleat to the face (video)

For soccer player Cristiano Diaz of the Newell Old Boys, this is probably a moment that he wouldn’t like to see the instant replay of.

During a recent match between the Newell Old Boys and the All Boys of Argentina’s Primera Division, Diaz got his face stepped on by defender Carlos Soto of the All Boys and laid on the ground for a good minute after the incident:

You have to give Diaz some bonus points for refusing a stretcher in a moment where most of us wouldn’t turn it away.
