Unusual incident in Turkey: goalkeeper knocked down a seagull (video)

An unexpected, simultaneously touching, and "humanitarian" event occurred on the football field in Turkey. In the final match of the Istanbul Amateur League, while "Mevlanakapi Guzelhisar" and "Istanbul Yurdum Spor" were playing, everyone forgot about the game in the 22nd minute.
The incident happened like this: the goalkeeper kicks the ball forward with a powerful shot. The ball touches a seagull flying high above the field. The bird unexpectedly received a blow and immediately fell unconscious onto the lawn.
The players on the field froze for a moment, as if asking "what happened?" But the team captain Ghani Katan realized there was no time: he immediately ran to the bird and, without any hesitation, began performing heart massage on the animal that had stopped breathing.
This unusual scene for everyone turned the final into a completely different atmosphere: competition, score, ball - everything fell to second place. Because at that moment, life, not the "goal" on the field, was important.
In short, football sometimes reminds us that it's not just a game, that humanity is also in the ring - no, on the field. Now it's clear that both fans and players will remember this final not with the score, but with this moment.
