Stretchered off the pitch
Usain Bolt seriously injured during charity football match
Multiple Olympic and world sprint champion Usain Bolt has suffered a serious injury during a charity soccer match at London's Stamford Bridge. The Jamaican went down at the "Soccer Aid" charity event and was taken off the pitch on a stretcher after receiving initial medical treatment.
"Torn Achilles tendon, but I know I'm a warrior," the 37-year-old posted on Instagram afterwards.
120 million euros for a good cause
The match, which was televised, is a well-known charity event. According to media reports, 120 million euros were raised for the children's charity UNICEF.
Bolt, who has regularly taken part in the event since 2018, was the captain of his team, which was ultimately defeated 3:6. Former professional footballers Eden Hazard and Alesandro Del Piero were among those in his team.
