— Manchester City FC (@MCFC) October 5, 2015 Manchester City made a mashup Vine of one of their players getting hit in the face with a ball
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
A sideline interview can be a dangerous place when shots are flying -- just ask Natasha Harding. The forward for Manchester City Women’s Club was talking to reporters after a huge win when she took a pretty hard shot to the head. Most teams wouldn’t mention this. Perhaps some plucky Vine artist would make a mashup -- but never do we see the team show this kind of creativity.
It’s beautiful. It’s perfectly timed. This is video editing art. Also props to Manchester City for using Holla Back Girl. That song was released 10 years ago (feel old?) so that classifies as a deep pull in 2015.
Harding was a GREAT sport about the whole thing. Securing a victory and ensuring Manchester City Women’s first Champion’s League berth probably made it easier.
"Lean back, lean back .... " cheers guys @MCFC https://t.co/GHqKbeDacs all worth it tho aye #ChampionsLeague
