Video: Montella and Balotelli clash at Adana Demirspor

Adana Demirspor coach Vincenzo Montella had to be physically restrained from confronting his own striker Mario Balotelli in an ugly post-match row.

The incident erupted on the pitch following the final whistle of a 1-0 Turkish Super Lig victory over Umraniye.

Balotelli seemingly said something to Montella as he was walking away, the coach then turned and lunged at the forward, restrained from engaging in a physical altercation by members of his staff.

It’s hardly the first time that Balotelli has got into clashes with his own managers, famously thrown off the training ground by Roberto Mancini at Manchester City.
