Field hockey involves fast direction changes, swinging sticks, and opponents arriving at full speed, which is a reliable recipe for frames exactly like this one.
One player accelerates away with the ball, the other commits to the tackle with a stick raised at an angle that suggests gravity is optional, and both wear the identical grimace of two athletes who want the same ball and will look ridiculous to get it. At game speed this is routine. Frozen, it is chaos with a follow-through.
Field hockey lets the ball travel well over 100 km/h off the stick, so players close distance fast and brake late. The result is two athletes arriving at the same point a fraction too committed to stop. The grimace is identical because the problem is identical.
