VIDEO: Brazilian footballer freaks out at own fans, flips middle finger and gets promptly sent off

Well this is new

We don’t think that Internacional will have to restock their club shop with Fabricio jerseys any time soon.

The fans have every right to be well and truly pissed off with their left-back after his outburst last night during their 1-0 victory over Ypiranga RS.

Fabricio had been getting a fair bit of stick from the Internacional supporters all game and lost it on the hour mark when he snapped, throwing both middle fingers to the stands.

The (surprisingly muscly but that’s irrelevant) referee quickly intervenes and shows the defender a red card before Fabricio then has his second breakdown in five seconds by ripping his jersey off and throwing it to the ground as his teammates attempt to calm the uncalmable.

It will be very difficult for Fabricio to rally from this and become a fan favourite.
