German sideline reporter hit on the head by football... again

Jessica Kastrop took to wearing a scrum-cap after she was first pinged back in 2010.

SKY GERMANY’S SIDELINE reporter Jessica Kastrop was struck in the head by a ‘stray’ football at the weekend.

Kastrop was updating viewers on team news when a loose pass thwacked her on the head. Kastrop is already a viral superstar after being struck by a ball before a Bundesliga game in 2010. She took to, jokingly, wearing a scrum-cap to protect herself but ditched the head-gear for her weekend broadcast of Bayer Leverkusen and Hoffenheim. Bad decision.

This was her 2010 run-in with a football.

There’s something in here somewhere about balls slapping off her head but it won’t quite come to me.
