A game between Herzilya and Ahi Nazareth in Israel had some farcical stretcher usage as the injured player was left to be carried off the field by his captain. 

Moamen Saleh went down with an innocuous leg injury before the helpers ran onto the field. The signs were not good from the start and it appeared as though their routine was unprepared and neither men looked comfortable with their stretcher game. Saleh's captain had to come to the rescue and carry his team-mate off the field to the embarrassment of the stretcher-carriers.
