An Indian footballer has died after a backflip goal celebration went tragically wrong during a match last week in north eastern India.
Peter Biaksangzuala attempted to perform the acrobatic celebration after scoring for Bethlehem Vengthlang FC against Chanmari West FC in the 62nd minute. Biaksangzuala fell on his head badly damaging his spinal cord.
Team-mates immediately rushed to his aid and he was immediately rushed to local hospital. Unfortunately, after five days of intensive treatment, as doctors attempted to heal his injuries, the footballer passed away on Sunday morning after being put on a ventilator.
