Coach Rosenior taunts fans of former club who ‘insulted my family’ as Paris FC beats Strasbourg
Paris FC's coach Liam Rosenior taunted the fans of his former club Strasbourg after the team secured an unbeaten record in the French league with a victory over their former foes. This incident occurred during Saturday's match, which was the first time the team had remained unbeaten in a five-game league span.
Upon winning, Rosenior took to celebrating in front of the visiting Strasbourg supporters, provoking a brief commotion on the pitch. The stadium announcer had previously urged the Strasbourg fans to curb their aggressive chanting about Rosenior's previous season at Chelsea. However, this directive seemed to have little impact.
After the final whistle blew, Rosenior seemed to provoke the Strasbourg fans further, patting his chest and extending his arms as he celebrated the win. This display of celebration was met with pushing and shoving between the players of both teams.
In a statement, Rosenior emphasized that only a small section of the Strasbourg fans had been disrespectful, as the majority of them were supporters of a fantastic club. He mentioned that his bench had been angered by the fans' behavior, leading him to celebrate in the manner he did. Rosenior declined to say more about the incident.
