Chinese Soccer Player Rewards Teammate’s Goal by Breaking His Nose

Sometimes soccer celebrations go right, sometimes they go wrong—nose breakingly wrong.
During the Hong Kong FA Cup between South China and Sun Hei, midfielder Kwok Kin Pong scored on a lovely diving header to put South China up 2-1.  So how does Pong get rewarded for scoring the go-ahead tally on such a nifty play?
He gets his nose busted…by his teammate.
As Pong lay on the ground admiring his handiwork, fellow South China player Chan Siu Ki slid into Pong to celebrate his goal, but ended up giving his teammate a celebratory broken schnozz for his effort.  Then he tries consoling Pong as he writhes on the pitch in agony by lovingly cradling his fallen comrade in his arms and singing Richard Marx to him (maybe).
The scene is both touching and hilarious at the same time, not only because Pong’s nose gets shattered, but because the midfielder might never score another goal again for fear of being maimed by one of his teammates.
