VIDEO – When M’Baye Niang and Mario Balotelli face off for a penalty

M’Baye Niang and Mario Balotelli chose a very particular way to choose who will take a penalty.

Formerly residents of Ligue 1, M’Baye Niang and Mario Balotelli are now both playing in Turkey. After having already played together at AC Milan a few years ago, the offensive duo is enjoying the glory days of the Adana Demirspor team.

Niang beats Balotelli

This Saturday, the two attackers participated in their team’s great victory against Konyaspor. The Senegalese international scored twice, while the ex Azzurro was content with just one goal.

A rather crazy scene occurred at the end of the match involving both men. At the 93e minute, their team benefited from a penalty. Everyone wanted to shoot it. So, to decide we went back to a good old method. The game of paper, rock, scissors.

In this game, the winner was M’Baye Niang. Defeated, “Super Mario” could only fade away. Not without first giving his partner a little slap. A nice sequence that is already making the rounds on social networks. In any case, and given what they went through during their careers, it’s good to see these two characters enjoying themselves again on a football field.
