SCAN SPORT – During a clash between players, an Irish supporter attacked Rowing’s second row, the Georgian Konstantin Mikautadze.
We are beginning the second half of the Champions Cup match between the Irish province of Munster and Aviron Bayonnais when an altercation between players from the two teams occurs. Nothing too bad. Except that the collision occurs at the edge of the key.
While tempers are calming down, an Irish supporter grabs the jersey of the second row of the Basque club, the Georgian Konstantin Mikautadze, behind his back. Who, surprised by this unusual gesture, cocks his fist to respond.
Fortunately, the Munster players intervened immediately to prevent the situation from degenerating. Hitting a spectator would have earned the Bayonnais a heavy suspension. An unprecedented departure from the public at Thomond Park, the famous Red Army, renowned for its fervor towards its team but also its respect for its opponents.
The match ended with a tie result (17-17), rewarding the heroic performance of the Basque club players.
