Vine: Cheick Tiote falling over completely unchallenged is the highlight of Colombia v Ivory Coast so far

We understand Cheick, there was obviously a sniper somewhere in the audience.

We understand Cheick, there was obviously a sniper somewhere in the audience.

There’s been a giant inflatable ball on the pitch and Teofilo Gutierrez has been responsible for one of the misses of the World Cup so far, but apart from that, Colombia v Ivory Coast failed to ignite in the first half.

In fact, Newcastle midfielder Cheick Tiote was responsible for probably the most entertaining moment of the half when he fell over with absolutely nobody near him close to the centre circle.

Look closely and you’ll actually see Tiote blame one of his team-mates for his clumsiness immediately after falling to the turf, perhaps not realising that absolutely nothing escapes the attention of the cameras these days.

Tough luck Cheick mate.
