Apparently there’s no limit to what some people will do to win a soccer game.An unidentified member of Sport Ancash’s coaching staff has been accused of giving players from opposing team Hijos de Acosvinchos drugged water after four of them passed out in the waning moments of their Peruvian second-division game.
With five minutes to go before the final whistle, Hijos de Acosvinchos defenseman Andy Salinas suddenly collapsed in the middle of the field and was quickly attended to by team physicians.
Immediately after play resumed, two of Salinas’ teammates -- Luis Coelho and Martín Reátegui - suffered the same fate and lost consciousness without warning. Although he managed to stay lucid, a fourth player, Juan Luna, also became ill as a result of drinking the tainted water.
“From what I remember… the goalie from the other team was being treated for an injury… Someone from the their (Sport Ancash) coaching staff, it must have been the equipment manager, the physical therapist or maybe the water boy, stepped onto the field and we shared drinks.”
