Is there a secret football teeth brushing cult or something?

Back in 2009, in a match between Chelsea and Man United, a man with an admirable dedication to dental hygiene emerged from the dugout, casually brushing his teeth:

Eight years later, a new toothbrush guy appeared, this time in a Champions League qualifier match between Liverpool and Hoffenheim:

“Who are these men who bring toothbrushes (and toothpaste?) to football matches in England? Why do they do it? I don’t know and I don’t want to. The many mysteries they possess are better off remaining mysteries. For we are not worthy of the answers. So here’s to you, Toothbrush Guys of football. May you elude cavities and watch good football for all the rest of your days.” (Peck)

The mystery remain unresolved! :O

LMAO! Seriously why the hell you bring a toothbrush to a football match?!?!? Mystery indeed!

He was probably going to bite on it if something went wrong.

Long time no see, welcome back bro.

it still makes more sense than to play RB at LWB, so a RW who wants to leave to play CM, could play RWB..
