Freak injury Paulo Diogo - Funny animation

Animation by Asle Rognlien:
On December 5, 2004, playing for Servette FC in an away game against FC Schaffhausen, Diogo set up a goal for Jean Beausejour in the 87th minute of the game. By way of celebration, he jumped up on the metal perimeter fence separating the fans from the pitch. Unnoticed by him, his wedding ring caught in the barrier (Diogo had married not long before). As he jumped off the fence, much of his finger tore off along with the ring.
To add insult to injury, referee Florian Etter then penalized him with a yellow card for excessive time-wasting with his "celebration". In fact, the match stewards were searching for his finger. Later that night, Diogo was taken to a Zurich hospital, but the doctors failed to re-attach the severed part of the finger and advised that the remaining part of his finger be amputated to the first joint. He has continued to play football since the accident.

Diogo has Portugese ORIGINS, but has lived his whole life in Switzerland.

Therefore he speaks with a french accent.

@yannis0the0nerd0han0 i say again: it's possible to learn french... whatever country you are from.

@funnyshit472

how do you mean

they dont speak portugese in switzerland

and paulo diogos nationality is Portugese so it wouldnt make sense if he had a french accent because he is portugese. so i agree with rresta

[funnyshit472]
