The staff at Awful Announcing scours feeds from all over the world to find the most amazing videos for you. For this story, we bring you a visual treasure from the Turkish Football Championship that took place over the weekend. Galatasaray won the title. Over whom it doesn't matter and you probably don't care.
After the game, Emmanuel Eboué decided to mess with the team's in-house reporter, Murat Borlu by picking him up, laying him on the ground, snatching his microphone away and interviewing him. Eboué ignored Murat's requests to speak in Turkish by speaking in English and takes over with one of the most bizarre field level interviews you'll ever see.
Now imagine if Dwyane Wade or LeBron James decided to pick up Craig Sager and lay him on the basketball court to conduct an interview. That would be one of the biggest viral videos in the history of YouTube.
But in our search for this video, we also discovered that Eboué has a history of messing with Murat. Here's Eboué firing balls at Murat during an interview.

And one more of Eboué picking on poor Murat.

Here's hoping we see more of the Eboué and Murat Show next season.
