The incident that involved Edinson Cavani being poked in the backside by Gonzalo Jara in the Copa America has sparked great debate around the world, but here are five other disgusting things that footballers have done to each other on the field.
Jones vs Gascoigne
The now movie star, Vinnie Jones, was once a fierce footballer that played for Wimbledon. He was known for his rough play and one day decide to give Paul Gascoigne an odd welcome by grabbing his crown jewels
Ramos v Costa
Sergio Ramos and Chelsea striker Diego Costa have some history and it could be reignited if Ramos is to join Manchester United in the summer. Ramos was seen spitting at Costa during the Madrid derby in 2012.
Shearer v Lennon
Newcastle legend Alan Shearer and Leicester City midfielder Neil Lennon exchanged a few rough challenges before this incident… A 50/50 challenged turned ugly and Shearer ended up kicking Lennon in the face.
Suarez's Three Biting Incidents
Luis Suarez has a history of biting his opponents when things get tough, and if biting Branislav Ivanovic in the Premier League was not enough, he went and did the same thing to Giorgio Chiellini at the World Cup. All this after having already bitten an opponent during his years at Ajax, earning him the nickname 'Cannibal of Amsterdam'.
Fazio v Costa
Yes... Diego Costa is in the middle of it all again, this time with Federico Fazio - who then was playing Sevilla. Fazio was seen punching Diego Costa in a La Liga match after he wasn't too happy with the striker's behaviour towards him.
What other incidents can you think of?
