A pair of Turkish women’s volleyball players crashed into each other headfirst during Monday’s Pool B matchup against the Russian Olympic Committee.
Cansu Ozbay and Meliha Ismailoglu collided after attempting to hit the ball at the same time.
Ozbay’s mouth was bleeding following the collision, but she and Ismailoglu returned after receiving medical treatment to help lead Turkey to a 3-2 win.
