Iron Man Of The North

Although "Iron Man" Shariff Samat was hit on the side of his head by Alberix's goalkeeper Hiroaki Hara during an attempt to salvage a save during the match on Wednesday night, that did not stop him physically and mentally.    The knock looked bad as Shariff went down on the ground and stayed there for a while and had to be carried off on a stretcher looking baffled. 

However minutes later, he asked to  rejoin his comrades while still holding an ice compress to his head.  And he played on till the final whistle was blown. 

Kudos to Shariff for his professionalism!  You are truly the Iron Man whom the supporters are proud of.
