Video: Astonishing scenes as Galatasaray star Marcao sent off for THUMPING his own teammate
Managers always talk about how they want to see ” a bit of fight” from their players, but generally not if they’re getting sent off for trying to smack a teammate.

At that point, they were 2-0 ahead and a man up so it didn’t affect the result, but it’s far from ideal.
