I couldn't see anywhere that he definitively hit the head. All of the angles show Gio's shoulder low, so if Aho hit that his head is also low ie he is looking down. Gio's feet are planted and his shoulder appears to be just below Aho's chin.
(I have a frame grab of the hit, but I can't figure out how to add it here....the insert image icon is only for a URL?)
