Saturday’s CONCACAF Gold Cup match between Qatar and Panama produced quite the photo.

Qatar defender Musaab Khidir was attempting to kick the ball past Panama defender Harold Cummings during the first half of their match at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The photo was so perfectly timed by USA TODAY Sports photographer Jerome Miron that the ball appeared to decapitate Cummings.

Panama won the quarterfinal match 4-0 to advance to the semis. They will face the winner of the US and Canada.
