Watch: Akinfenwa goes beast mode, body slams opponent in promotion playoff

Reuters

AFC Wimbledon striker Adebayo Akinfenwa scored a penalty late to send his side to League One following a 2-0 defeat of Plymouth in the League Two promotion playoff final, though his most notable contribution may have been body slamming Peter Hartley.

Unfortunately for Hartley, he was stretchered off while receiving oxygen and was subsequently replaced by defender Jordan Forster. Hopes are he just had the wind knocked out of him and it's not something serious.
