Football fans have joked that an Olympiacos' steward's dive ‘deserves a yellow card’ after he was hit by falling fence outside of the Karaiskakis Stadium.

The steward is sent stumbling towards the stadium, until he finally hit the ground to an uproar of laughter from the Hammers fans. And fans have joked he should be booked after the clip did the rounds on X, formerly known as Twitter.
