The MNT U-19s are ride or die
The MNT U-19s played Bahrain today as part of the U-20 COTIF tournament, currently taking place in Valencia, Spain.
Bahrain was leading 3-1 in stoppage when Pierre Da Silva got tripped by a Bahraini player and another player attempted to clear the ball directly into Da Silva’s head while he lay on the ground.

You can see John Nelson promptly take off in ride-or-die mode from the right side of the screen after the player, who tries to dodge away, only to get shoved in the back by what looks like Brandon Vazquez.
