It can become frustrating in sports when things aren’t going your team’s way, but the height of frustration is when you take out your frustration on your own teammate. That’s pretty much what happened to Cameroon when they played Croatia. Both teams were fighting for their lives, so it was expected to be a good matchup. However, Croatia decimated Cameroon 4-0.
The height of boiling points when Cameroon’s Benoît Assou-Ekotto head butted his teammate Benjamin Moukandjo. I’m guessing that because soccer players are so used to not using hands in the game as opposed to their heads the head butt becomes the weapon of choice in a frustrating moment. Either way, the refs made it clear that a player can’t get a red card for head butting their own teammate, so the match continued with Cameroon players being mad at each other and Croatia enjoying the meltdown.
