An unusual incident occurred yesterday (Wednesday) after the loss of Maccabi Petah Tikva to Kiryat Shmona (1: 0), during which coach Guy Luzon confronted a fan and told him: “I will blow your mind, I will slaughter you.” According to the club’s staff, about 15 fans waited in the club’s training complex when the team bus returned from Kiryat Shmona and approached the coach in an attempt to attack him with threats and curses.
In response, Luzon said: “Yesterday’s event is an event that should bother everyone. I am a football coach and I whether I like it or not I learned to accept and contain the reactions of the crowd in the stands. This is the arena and they are allowed to curse and attack. That’s another question..that can be discussed.But it’s not possible that I’m off the field in my private life should walk down the street and people will feel comfortable and think they’re allowed to just attack me. “An off-field player in his private life on the street?”
