You don’t grapple with Sergio Ramos. Unless you want to damage your shoulder ligaments or score a disastrous own goal in front of 80,000 of your countrymen, just stay away from the guy. He’s always a threat on set pieces — especially when the clock reads 92:48 — but he’s also a major threat with his understanding of judo.
Russia defender Sergei Ignashevich clearly didn’t heed the overabundance of warning signs and tried to tango with the Spain captain 12 minutes into today’s Round of 16 clash at the Luzhniki Stadium.
This is also a decent ball from Liverpool transfer target Marco Asensio. Let’s give credit to Fernando Hierro for putting the young lad in.

That’s the one hundredth own goal of the 2018 FIFA World Cup — a record.
