That hurt… a lot.

The recent matchup of The Russian Olympic Committee and Turkey had a violent collision. Watch as two of the Turkey volleyball players bang heads while going for the ball.

This was a pretty rough hit. Cansu Ozbay and Meliha Ismailoglu are the two Turkish players that smacked heads attempting to return the ball. Ozbay’s mouth was bloody, but after she received medical treatment she was back in the match. Turkey won 3-2.
