Patrice Evra Kicks Fan In Head Ahead Of Marseille Game

Eric Cantona style.

In true 'Frenchman with ties to Manchester United' fashion, Patrice Evra has launched a kick at a fan in a manner Eric Cantona would have been proud of, ahead of Marseille's Europa League clash with Vitoria Setabul, tonight.

It is unclear what has caused the altercation, but early reports seem to indicate Evra has aimed a kick at the head of a Marseille fan after a section of visiting l'OM ultras managed to find their way out of the stands and began hurling insults at the former Manchester United left-back, causing tempers to flare between them and some of l'OM's players.

Evra showed supreme flexibility to not so slyly throw a kick at one of the fans, appearing to nail him in the head.


Evra received a red card before the game even kicked off for his offence, leaving Marseille with just six substitutes for the game against Vitoria. No word as of yet, but we're hoping he shouted: "I LOVE THIS GAME" as he was ushered away from the scene.
