Footballer pulls down shorts and reveals penis to try and distract opponent

An unorthodox approach to say the least

A player in the Colombian Premier League opted for a strange method to try and distract his opponent while taking a free-kick by pulling down his shorts and revealing his penis. Geisson Perea of Santa Fe opted for the unconventional approach during his side's fixture against Jaguares on Monday night. The 31-year-old was preparing to line up in the wall to defend the free-kick before deciding to put off the opposition by pulling down his shorts entirely. His actions were met with criticism, with some claiming that revealing everything for all to see was a step too far. Despite doing so in a stadium full of people Perea wasn't punished for his actions, with the referee failing to spot his crude behaviour. While the man in the middle of the pitch didn't spot the incident those watching at home were less fortunate as the television cameras picked up the defender stripping down. https://twitter.com/footballramble/status/1582687200667652096?s=46&t=7zvvZMEJe051o2R2g-cukw Supporters on social media expressed their dismay as some even called for the 31-year-old to face serious punishment for his behaviour. One fan wrote: "What disrespect from Geisson Perea when playing football." https://twitter.com/CorrealDanny/status/1581837783056146432 Another said: "Shame on that player Geisson Perea from Santa Fe lowering his uniform and showing the referee... Are we going with a sanction?" Perea later came out and claimed that it hadn't been his intention to remove his shorts entirely and tried to explain that he was adjusting his clothes. "I was fixing my lycra, I had that space," he told local outlet El VBAR CARACOL. "When I enter a court, I enter it to play and not to be aware that a camera can see me. They are synonymous with emotions that move." https://twitter.com/CardenalFamilia/status/1582481327214845952 Related links:
