During a match in the Independence Cup 2025, Indonesia U-17 striker Mierza Firjatullah shocked fans with a dramatic fall while celebrating his goal against Tajikistan U-17.
The 16-year-old scored in the 34th minute with a brilliant header and ran toward the crowd to celebrate. But in his excitement, he jumped over a fence and accidentally fell into a 10 foot deep ditch next to the pitch.
Players, coaches, and fans were scared, thinking he might be badly hurt. But luckily, Mierza was not seriously injured. He was helped out of the ditch by staff and even continued playing for some time before being substituted in the 59th minute.

Even though the game had other highlights, Mierza’s fall became the most talked-about moment. The video of his celebration gone wrong has gone viral online, with fans calling it both scary and unforgettable.
Premier League 2025: Ezri Konsa Receives First Red Card Of Season As Aston Villa Reduced To 10 Men Against Newcastle; Video
Aston Villa found themselves in serious trouble during their opening Premier League clash against Newcastle United after defender Ezri Konsa was shown a straight red card for a foul on Anthony Gordon. This is the first red card of the new season. The incident unfolded in dramatic fashion following a lightning-quick counterattack from the Magpies.
It all began with a rapid transition, as Anthony Elanga surged forward through midfield with blistering pace, catching the Villa backline off guard. Spotting the run of Anthony Gordon, Elanga played a perfectly weighted through ball behind the defence. Gordon sprinted onto it, breaking free in a clear goalscoring position.

As the Newcastle forward looked certain to go one-on-one with the goalkeeper, Konsa, who had been caught behind the play, desperately lunged back and pulled Gordon down just outside the area. The challenge left referee Craig Pawson with little choice but to reach for his pocket and issue a straight red card to Konsa for denying a clear goalscoring opportunity.
