Let’s be honest; watching England play football can be pretty boring at the best of times, never mind during a friendly match.

That’s not to condone the actions of one Three Lions fan, despite friends videoing one of the most impressive demonstrations of paper-plane throwing you’re likely to see.

Using one of the paper clappers that the FA had provided for fans to make some noise during the clash with Peru, the supporter carefully made a rather beautiful paper aircraft, before another fan filmed its flight towards the Wembley pitch.

TV cameras caught the moment the plane hit the player (Picture: YouTube)

The plane glided all the way down from the top tier of the 90,000-seater Wembley Stadium – hitting Peru player Hansell Riojas in the back of the head during the second half, leaving him totally confused (and the fans celebrating more than when the goals were scored).




The incident was captured by TV cameras as well as this man’s camera phone.

England ended up winning the match 3-0 as they continue their preparations ahead of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil this summer.
