You may not think he looks lucky but this could have gone an awful lot worse for Jasper Cillessen.
The Ajax stopper was left in an awful way after coming off second best in a battle for the ball with ADO Den Haag winger Ruben Schaken on Sunday.
Cillessen arrived at a bouncing ball first but Schaken had swung a leg in a bid to take it away from the onrushing goalkeeper.
Unfortunately, Schaken’s shin connected with Cillessen’s jaw and it initially appeared as though the Netherlands international was knocked unconscious.
Cillessen was left badly bleeding from the kick which earned Schaken a yellow card but we’re just glad that Cillessen was OK to continue and hadn’t sustained any serious injuries.
Who’d want to be a goalkeeper, eh?
