Click timestamps to jump to that momentThe Istanbul First Amateur Championship
League brought you excitement you've
never seen before. We're watching a
soccer match. It's Turkey. It's
Istanbul. It's red versus blue. The
goalies were in green though. They wear
different colors. He's going to boot it
down. Oh no, it hit a seagull. Dropped
out of the air. They paused the game
immediately. We're giving this bird CPR
or we're squeezing it to death to put it
out of its misery. He puts the wings
together. He's holding up the head and
now he's just pancaking it. Oh my god.
Oh my god. Look how flat he's making
this thing.
READY? OH MY GOD. IT'S A LITTLE BIRD.
DUDE, WHAT ARE you doing? It's not
choking on a French fry. It just got
clipped. Here it is again. We've got
Randy Johnson with the leg. Birds in the
air trying to get a good view of the
action. Illegal. Don't have access to
that part of the field. Now it's on the
ground. And again, they're squeezing
this thing like it's a toy, like it's a
dog. They're just squeezing it. Watch.
Notice its little legs. They're not
moving. They're not moving. And then he
keeps squeezing it. Keeps squeezing it.
And then look at them little legs
flutter. Look at them little legs
flutter.
It's alive. So they take it off the
field and they give it to this dude who
definitely isn't going to cook it and
eat it. That would be illegal under the
Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918. So
he's just going to keep it safe. But let
it be known, the green goalie and his
red teammates, they hurt that bird than
they saved it. Which one do you give
them more credit for? They want more
credit for saving it. Kicks it downfield
again. This time no one's in the air.
It's totally free. The ball goes up
again. And now a guy on blue goes down
and he's hurt and there's no CPR.
There's no saving him. There's no
sympathy. There's nothing. He just lays
there aches and pains. What gives?
Anyway, it goes to a shootout and the
green guy, this goal is bouncing around,
bouncing around and red team, they hurt
the bird, they miss and he's excited
about it. Oh yeah. 151 teams at this
level and this is the championship game
and a bird got involved as we've seen.
So now he's pumped up. All he needs is
his teammate number five to make the
kick. So they miss the high five
initially. Here's the ball, dude. Make
the kick. And then they don't connect
there. So they say, "You know what's
better than that? How about a kiss?" And
he whispers, "This is for that bird.
That goalie tried to kill that bird. I'm
going to do it for the bird." And then
what do you know? Makes it cuz that
goalie hurt that bird. And the blue team
avenged the
