Ex-England star Andros Townsend run over by pitch roller in Thailand
–
Neutral summary
Former England and Tottenham midfielder Andros Townsend was run over by a pitch roller while warming up during half-time of a Thai League 1 match on Saturday. The incident happened at Tinsulanon Stadium in Songkhla before the second half of the game between his club Prachuap and Pattani FC. Video shows the 35-year-old doing an exercise and not noticing the approaching machine, which knocked him down; his left leg was briefly trapped under the roller. The worker operating the machine stopped it and helped the player get up. Townsend did not suffer serious injuries and came on as a substitute late in the match. Reports note he joined Prachuap in the summer transfer window. According to RMC Sport, the player was shocked but still played in added time. One source, La Dépêche, says Townsend was partially crushed by the roller, while other outlets, including Al Jazeera and Bangkok Post, report he avoided serious consequences.
