On Sunday, MLS decision day, Jozy Altidore tied Toronto FC up with Atlanta United, 1-1 (Michael Parkhurst, what are you even doing over there). During his celebration, a fan threw a beer at him.
Jozy tried to head the beer, but was unsuccessful. Luckily, Sebastian Giovinco was lurking behind him and cleaned the situation up.
JOZY! It's level in Atlanta.#ATLvTOR // #DecisionDay by @ATT https://t.co/m6CkcQPs8x

I like Giovinco's attitude here: no wounded soldiers. Finish your drink like an adult, Atlanta fan who threw the beer. Stop relying on diminutive Italian attackers to do your drinking for you. Also, beers are very expensive at professional sporting events, and that seems like a waste!
Giovinco also did some soccer after he was done drinking.

I don't know how Giovinco did that. Every time I have a beer before I play a recreational indoor game I just get heartburn and feel like I can't move. I suppose it's important to work those calories off. Footballers generally aren't supposed to develop unsightly beer guts until after they retire.
