A young talent from MANCHESTER UNITED, Jaydan Kamason, inadvertently collided with the linesman during a youth match.
The 19-year-old was competing for United’s Under-21 team against Burnley on Sunday when the unfortunate event occurred.
In the 31st minute, the full-back received a cross-field pass from a teammate but mishandled the ball with his head.
The young player had to sprint after it to prevent it from going out for a Burnley throw-in.
Kamason managed to keep the ball in play but unfortunately took out the unfortunate official next to the touchline.
The wonderkid had slid towards the pitch and brought the linesman down with him.

However, he was deemed fit to continue after discussing with another official on the sideline.
