NEED TO KNOW

  • Soccer player Piero Hincapié is going viral for a recent wardrobe malfunction on the field
  • As he and Arsenal played against Burnley in London on May 18, he suffered an NSFW mishap
  • Hincapié's accident was also joked about by his teammate Declan Rice

You can say this soccer player was stuck in a cheeky situation.

Ecuadorian professional athlete Piero Hincapié, who plays for the U.K.'s Arsenal F.C. and is 24 years old, encountered an NSFW wardrobe malfunction during the team's match against Burnley at London's Emirates Stadium on May 18.

During the game, Hincapié clashed with competing player Axel Tuanzebe. The blunder ended with Hincapié falling to the ground with Tuanzebe following suit, which is how the former's shorts ended up getting pulled nearly all the way down and exposing his bare butt cheeks.

Hincapié has gone viral for putting the "arse" in the league's name, but he has not mentioned the blunder. In fact, one day ago, he posted on Instagram with shots from the game but failed to mention the mishap — so much so that his teammate Declan Rice commented, "Where is the other pic….. 👀🤣."

Soccer isn't the only sport in the playing field when it comes to internet-worthy fashion gaffes.

In April, pro wrestler Jacy Jayne suffered an accident during a triple-threat match between Kendal Grey and Lola Vice. While the video broadcast glitched every few seconds before cutting back to a blank screen, fans at home got a glimpse of Jayne's top as it appeared to slide down, exposing her chest mid-ankle lock.

It's not just athletes who are finding themselves in sticky situations, either.

That same month, an MLB fan accidentally gave viewers a show during an attempt to catch a foul ball at the Tampa Bay Rays game against the Chicago Cubs at Tropicana Field on April 7.

In addition to being shown on the broadcast, the moment, which saw the fan's pants completely fall down and bare their bum, was seemingly blasted on the JumboTron inside the stadium based on the crowd's unanimous gasp in reaction to the full moon display from the fan.
