And you thought Alex Song’s sending off was bad?

One would have thought that no Cameroon player could do anything as stupid as the elbow that got Alex Song sent off in the first-half against Croatia this evening, but Benoit Assou-Ekotto somehow managed it.

In the dying minutes of the game, which was long since over as a contest, the former Spurs defender had a disagreement with Benjamin Moukandjo and amazingly, headbutted his team-mate after they had exchanged angry words.

We’re lost for words.
