Watch: Soccer Player Gets Knocked Out During Game, Teammates Push Ambulance Off Pitch

After Bruno Silva went down in this game, players from both clubs were needed to help get him off the field.

This was not how Bruno Silva expected to leave the field Saturday.

In a match between Vasco da Gama and Flamengo, the Vasco midfielder was knocked out of the game and needed some assistance getting off the pitch.

When the ambulance came to take Silva to the hospital though, everything did not go as smoothly as it should have.

Silva gets loaded into the ambulance with no problem, but the vehicle had trouble getting started to move Silva off the pitch. Players from both clubs had to help out in order to move the ambulance so Silva could get the medical attention he needed.

"That's a first," Flamengo defender Rever told Brazilian network SporTV. "What a lamentable scene. I thought the driver was kidding but he said he had turned the engine off and asked for our help. We managed to push it a little bit and it kick-started."

The match was able to resume after Silva and the ambulance got off the playing surface. It ended in a 1-1 draw.
