When you commentate on a game of football, the last thing you’d expect is to be hit by a beer bottle.And yet, that’s exactly what happened to former Newcastle star Warren Barton during Colombia’s 3-1 win over Uzbekistan in the early hours of Thursday morning [UK Time].Diaz scored one and assisted another in Colombia’s 3-1 win over UzbekistanDaniel Munoz opened the scoring for Nestor Lorenzo’s side on the stroke of half time.Abbosbek Fayzullaev drew the White Wolves level on their tournament debut.However, they were level for just five minutes as Luis Diaz scored his first and Colombia’s second midway through the second half.And Jaminton Campaz wrapped up the three points for the South American side in second-half stoppage time.The match itself, though, didn’t pass without incident.Uzbekistan and Manchester City centre-back Abdukodir Khusanov hospitalised a cameraman after colliding with the operator in the first half.Barton, meanwhile, was hit with a bottle during the dying embers of the match itself as co-commentator Jacqui Oatley confirmed.“That was an unusual one,” Oatley’s post on X began. “Getting drenched in beer while commentating on a goal (quite refreshing, actually) and poor Warren Barton was whacked/cut in the head by a flying bottle!“I heard him being hit and turned round to see blood trickling down his forehead. He’s OK.“Poor cameraman wiped out/injured by tackle too.”View Tweet: https://x.com/warrenbarton22?ref_src=twsrc%5EtfwView Tweet: https://x.com/FIFAWorldCup?ref_src=twsrc%5EtfwOatley went on to praise Colombia and Uzbekistan following the Group K clash, continuing: “Well done Colombia, decent debut by Uzbekistan, too, stayed in the game til near the end. Unreal atmosphere at the old Azteca“Colombia fans are phenomenal.”The former Newcastle man, meanwhile, posted on his own X account: “Great game tonight except from being hit by a bottle.”Barton seemed to show no ill-effects to the incident as he joined Andy Goldstein and Darren Bent on World Cup Breakfast on Thursday morning.Goldstein and Bent were discussing England’s 4-2 win over Croatia as goals from Harry Kane – twice – Jude Bellingham and Marcus Rashford wrapped up all the spoils for Thomas Tuchel’s men.And Barton was impressed with the overall performance of the Three Lions.Barton had a six-and-a-half season spell at NewcastleGetty “I enjoyed it. First 20 minutes, I thought we looked very good,” Barton began.“There was a good pressing situation with Harry Kane and the way he was squeezing up. Got the goal and obviously the penalty had to be retook. I enjoyed it“Typical from us with England, it made us get a little bit worried just before half time.“But whatever was said, and it was obviously very positive that he’s going to go out, he wants us to play on the front foot, which, I think Darren and I agree, that’s when we’re always at our best.“Whether it’s been a decade ago or whether it was a few hours ago, I think we’re at our best when we play like that. We’ve got so much depth, when you bring on someone like [Marc] Guehi, who should start the next game.“I’m so pleased for [Marcus] Rashford to get his goal. I think he can have a really, really good tournament. Jude Bellingham really stood out for me.And when asked on any moments in the game that concerned Barton, he added: “I think we’d become a little bit predictable as well. We were going too long too early.”England top Group L following their 4-2 victory and will qualify with a win over Ghana next week.The Black Stars secured a 1-0 win over Panama to go level on points with the Three Lions.World Cup WhatsAppDon't miss an update from talkSPORT in our dedicated World Cup WhatsApp channel.Search for ‘talkSPORT World Cup’ in your ‘Updates’ tab on WhatsApp and we’ll drop the proper, unfiltered football chat straight to your lock screen—no fluff, just pure talkSPORT energy.It’s where you’ll find out all the new rules to watch out for, England and Scotland reaction and big match player ratings.
