A hilarious yet brilliant moment unfolded in Ligue 1 as a Strasbourg player pretended to have a disagreement with his teammate just to waste time — and then moments later, he shocked everyone by providing a crucial assist.
The scene started when Strasbourg were trying to hold on to their narrow lead. Two players began arguing near the sideline, drawing the referee’s attention and slowing down the game. Fans thought it was a genuine disagreement — until play resumed.
Right after the “argument,” the same player made a clever run, received the ball, and delivered a perfect cross that led to a decisive goal.
Commentators and fans couldn’t help but laugh, calling it “elite-level time management” and one of the smartest bits of gamesmanship seen this season.
