Six stitches, a bizarre weekend celebration 😅

English football regularly offers us unlikely scenes… and Sunday's at Nottingham is one of them.

If Nottingham Forest secured a convincing victory (3-1) against Brentford thanks to a double from Chris Wood and Dan Ndoye's first goal, one of the highlights of the match took place… on the bench.

Rui Barbosa, Forest's goalkeeping coach, completely lost it when the opening goal was scored in the 5th minute. Overcome with joy, he ended up head-butting the protection of his team's bench.

Result: a nice gash and six stitches to treat the wound.

"He was dizzy", his manager Nuno Espírito Santo admitted after the match.

Barbosa had to recover as best he could from this lost battle against the stadium's furniture, while his players ensured victory on the pitch.
