England national football player, Andros Townsend, was involved in a very strange accident prior to a Thai League One game. Townsend, who plays for PT Prachuap, got into the way of a pitch roller during the warm-up. Video footage of the accident has been posted online. Townsend was warming up for Saturday night’s match against Pattani when he jumped while performing an aerial backheel and landed in the way of the pitch roller. It has been claimed that the driver of the machine was looking away from the scene at the time.

The video shows Townsend falling onto the field and being run over by the pitch roller. The machine runs over his legs and hip areas. Screams could be heard during the incident, while other players were seen covering their head in shock. However, Townsend did not suffer any serious injury despite this very strange accident. He was even able to participate in the match later for his team.

The 35-year-old Townsend reshared the video of the incident on his Instagram account, captioning it, "Pretend it was an accident." He accompanied it with a laughing emoji. He also joked about the incident on his Instagram Stories. Townsend came on as a substitute in injury time during PT Prachuap's 3-0 win.

Townsend has played 13 international matches for England. He joined PT Prachuap from another Thai club, Kanchanaburi Power, in August. Kanchanaburi Power suffered relegation last season.
