Boubabar Barry caught chewing grass.

At the World Cup so far, we’ve seen players taking bites out of other players, and now, players taking bites out of the pitch.

Yep, Ivory Coast goalkeeper Boubacar Barry apparently likes chewing on some turf during matches, after being spotted eating grass during the clash with Greece.

The African side eventually lost the match 2-1, dumping them out of the World Cup, but cameras panned towards goalie Barry when Swansea striker Wilfried Bony scored.

He celebrated with a mad jump in from of the camera behind his goal, before opening his mouth to scream to the viewers at home.

It was then where we all spotted a nasty chunk of turf, stuck between his gums.
