VIDEO: Footballer Punches Rival in the Face

In a friendly match, English "West Bromwich" midfielder Jason Molumby punched Spanish "Mallorca" player Samu Costa in the jaw. At the end of the first half, Molumby was dissatisfied with a foul committed against him and approached Costa to clarify their differences.

After a verbal exchange, the Spanish player attempted to grab his opponent by the neck, but Molumby retaliated by striking him in the face. Following this incident, players began to hit each other and fell onto the ground. Fights in football are usually punished with lengthy suspensions, making a punch to the face a highly uncommon occurrence. Consequently, the episode involving Jason Molumby and Costa has drawn significant attention.

According to the Daily Mail, no players were sent off during the match, but Molumby was substituted at halftime. The first half ended goalless, while the second half saw Mallorca secure a minimal victory with a single goal.

Molumby has frequently received yellow cards while playing for his club.
