Mateta victim of an attack, the dreadful image (video)

The image is cold in the back. On the occasion of the 8e final of the FA Cup between Crystal Palace and Millwall, this Saturday, Jean-Philippe Mateta was the victim of a real attack on the part of the Lions porter.

At the start of the match, Jean-Philippe Mateta was violently struck by Liam Roberts, whose foot finished in the head of the 27-year-old French striker. The Millwall goalkeeper was logically excluded for this reckless outing.

Evacuated on a stretcher, the former Lyonnais was replaced by Eddie Nketiah at the 15the Minute of play. While waiting to learn more about his state of health.
