Ancil Elcock (born 17 March 1969) is a Trinidadian former professional footballer.[1] He played for Major League Soccer team Columbus Crew between 1997 and 2001 (130 games and 7 goals), and for Tobago United. He got 69 caps for the Trinidad and Tobago national team between 1994 and 2004.[2] Ancil Elcock became infamous for fracturing Mexican forward Cuauhtémoc Blanco in a World Cup qualification match.[3]
Elcock is the older cousin of Stern John, whom he recruited to the Columbus Crew while tenured there.
Blanco's Injury
[edit]On 8 October 2000, Trinidad and Tobago contested a World Cup qualification match against Mexico. The match was played in Mexico City at the Estadio Azteca and the referee was Carlos Batres Gonzalez. In the 72nd minute, Elcock slide-tackled Cuauhtémoc Blanco hitting him on the knee as he received the ball in the penalty area. Referee Gonzalez determined the tackle to be of excessive force and called for a penalty and ejected Elcock by showing him a direct red card, even though Elcock had previously received a yellow in the game. The penalty was taken and scored by Víctor Ruiz resulting in the final score of the game 7–0 in favor of Mexico.[4][3]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
