This Argentinian football manager got into a scrap with a fan while filling his car at a petrol station

Can you imagine Big Sam getting involved in a barney at a motorway services?! Oh…you can.

Well, that’s basically what happened in Argentina, as Sarmiento manager Caruso Lombardi was filmed trading blows at a petrol station – with a fan of his own team.

The Primera División side, who lost their last game 1-0 at Rosario Centra, are currently propping up the rest of the table in bottom place. It seems enough was enough for the restless fan.

Lombardi was on the receiving end of fan abuse whilst filling up his car – and so decided to fill in the supporter.

His excuse? “I went crazy,” he admitted. Yes, you did, Caruso. Yes. You. Did.
