Video: Thuram below the belt with Savic

Atletico Madrid might be famous for the ‘dark arts’ of football, but Inter forward Marcus Thuram decided to show Stefan Savic he’s learned a few tricks too.

The Frenchman had been previously elbowed in the back of the head by Savic, so decided to get his revenge by reaching back and giving a not so gentle squeeze to a delicate area.

VAR looked at the footage, but decided not to take action against Thuram, who was substituted moments later by Simone Inzaghi to avoid further trouble.

However, the two players resolved the issue between themselves with a laugh and a joke on the field, helped by the fact Savic knows full well he’s done worse in his career.
