Dude. Dude. There’s letting your emotions get the best of you in the heat of battle and then there’s criminally assaulting a defenseless person in full view of audience members and officials. I think we both know what this cowardly act falls under.
According to Mirror, the incident took place at the URBA–a rugby union competition
in the Argentine capital of Buenos Aires where rugby clubs Pucara and San Albano were squaring off.
Pucara prop Cipriano Martinez was the dude who straight up almost decapitated San Alabano’s second row Juan Masi, a cheap shot that not only ejected him from the match, but also earned him a 99 year ban from his own club.
The Pucara rugby club released a statement reproaching Martinez’s deplorable act.
“Pucara club denounces the unsporting conduct displayed during the match against San Albano.
“We wish to extend our sincere apologies to the injured player, the club and to the ruby world in general. Pucara Club will be taking disciplinary measures.”
The video has been shared on YouTube where it has already been seen over 130,000 times, making Martinez 130,000 new enemies.
