Gattuso was seen to raise his arms in a confrontation with Jordan during the game and then attempted to head-butt the Scot after the final whistle.
The Scotland legend Jordan is known as one of the hardest footballers in history, but the former Rangers midfielder Gattuso stepped up to the Tottenham staff member during a Champions League clash on this day in 2011.

Peter Crouch had given Spurs the 1-0 win against the Rossoneri and Gattuso said after the match that Jordan had been heckling him ‘for the whole second half’ but the Milan captain admitted he never should have headbutted the former Manchester United and Diavolo centre-forward.
Gattuso was suspended for the return leg and Milan were eventually knocked out of the competition by Tottenham in the round of 16.
