#2 Didier Zokora on Emre Belozoglu
Trending
In a fixture between Fenerbahce and Trabzonspor back in 2012, Didier Zokora accused Emre Belozoglu of racially abusing him. Even though the former Newcastle player admitted to the wrongdoing, he denied claims of a racial context to his insult. In spite of Zokora’s insistence, the specific charge couldn’t be proved and Emre was charged with just a two-game ban when it should have been at least six to eight games.
When the two sides met again the following season, the Ivorian midfielder took matters into his hands as a means of restitution. It seemed like he had proven his point when he refused to shake the playmaker's hand but his real wrath unfolded later during the course of the match.
The former Tottenham player was running full tilt towards Emre as he progressed with the ball through midfield. Zokora timed his revenge to apparent perfection as he kicked the Turkish midfielder in his crown jewels with “the full force of his right boot”. The midfielder crumpled to the ground immediately and Zokora escaped with just a booking.
