VIDEO: Electronic advertising hoarding malfunctions as Juanfran celebrates Saul opener

What's in his boots?

They’ll hardly take this out of his wages, will they?

Atletico Madrid are known as a robust team who don’t mind getting amongst it when it comes to defending but we’d have thought that the advertising hoardings were at least safe from a kicking.

After Saul Niguez put the hosts in front in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final with Bayern Munich, the excitement all got too much for Juanfran.

As most of his teammates celebrated by jumping on the back of the goalscorer, Juanfran casually wandered over to the pitch-side hoarding and gave it a friendly boot.

The kick didn’t look like it could possibly cause any damage but, apparently, electronic hoardings are made of delicate stuff and it quickly went haywire.
