Footballer dies after attempting Klose somersault goal celebration (Photo & Video)

An Indian footballer tragically died after his somersault goal celebration went horribly wrong during a match last week.

Peter Biaksangzuala attempted to perform the acrobatic celebration – similar to that carried out by Miroslav Klose – after he scored for Bethlehem Vengthlang FC against Chanmari West FC in the 62nd minute.

The 23-year-old hit his head as he landed on the ground following the somersault, which resulted in the midfielder failing to get up off the pitch.

Biaksangzuala was taken to a local hospital where he tragically lost his life on Sunday morning after having damaged his spinal cord.

A source said: ‘He was trying to do Germany’s Klose signature flip stunt, but it misfired unfortunately.’
