Vine: Hamburg physio inexplicably gives striker an arse rub on the pitch

What on Earth is happening?

SportsJOE

At least we hope that guy’s the physio.

A vine is doing the rounds on the internet showing Hamburg striker Pierre-Michel Lasogga having his derriere vigorously rubbed by the physio during their relegation play-off.

Generally physios get called by players to rub areas that are affected by cramp. So it’s not unthinkable that after playing 120+ minutes of football that Lasogga’s butt-cheeks did indeed suffer from cramp.

…Is it?

Maybe Lasogga likes getting his butt rubbed after matches, perhaps the physio likes rubbing butts. I guess we’ll never find out the truth behind the mystery of the Hamburg butt-rub.
