It’s not Liverpool, but some football stories from the wider world are just too big to ignore.

Last night, Arsenal duo Mesut Ozil (who was driving) and his team-mate Sead Kolasinac were targeted by armed carjackers in north London.

A video shows that two helmet-wearing attackers tried to rob the car, but Kolasinac fought them off with his bare hands, despite them brandishing large knives.

It’s a crazy piece of footage, and we have enormous respect for the Bosnian left-back. Many footballers have a reputation of being brave on the field, but we’re not sure very many would have done what he did.

Kolasinac – you have the respect of Liverpool fans everywhere! We’re glad nobody was hurt and now just hope the idiots responsible are found.
