Pow, right in the kisser.

If ever a player invited an unceremonious two-footed challenge from an opposition player then surely it was Glen Rea of Brighton under-21s during a clash with Millwall on Monday night.

As if wasting time and taking the p*ss by elaborately juggling the ball on his head wasn’t bad enough, he then flicked the ball directly into the face of a Millwall player behind him, an act we’re sure Rea will claim was accidental but we’re fairly sure he knew what he was doing.

Fair play to the Millwall player in question for not reacting more aggressively to what must have been a pretty embarrassing moment for him, but we’re sure he bided his time and exacted revenge when Rea least suspected it.
