A shocking rugby tackle leads to match abandonment, sparking outrage among fans and viewers alike.
Yorkshire: So, there was this crazy moment in a rugby match that everyone is talking about. It was between Stanley Rangers and Ossett Trinity, and let me tell you, it was wild.
During the game, one player went for a tackle that was just brutal. He charged in and hit his opponent with a clothesline move using his elbow right to the head. Ouch! You could see the guy’s head snap back, and it was hard to watch.
What’s even more shocking? The referee didn’t give a red card at the time. He later said he felt terrible for missing it. The game went on, but things got heated, and they ended up abandoning the match after another high tackle.
Referee Danny Tindall shared his thoughts, saying he called it as he saw it but felt awful after reviewing the footage. He sent it to the Rugby Football League to look into it further. He called it one of the worst intentional tackles he’s seen.
The video of the tackle has gone viral, racking up over 5 million views. People are still buzzing about it, and it’s clear this tackle will be remembered for a long time.
