Gattuso, who had been booked for a separate incident, was clearly still seething from the incidents in the game and approached Jordan at the full-time whistle, this time catching the Scot with an extraordinary headbutt.
Gattuso’s antics not only sparked a 20-man brawl as the teams went down the tunnel, but also were enough to land him a four-match ban from UEFA. And despite delivering an apology, he claimed he was provoked by Jordan.
“I lost my head, I did things I should not have done and I take responsibility for that,” Gattuso later said. “Jordan busted my balls for the whole second half, but I should not have reacted like this. I apologise, and if a ban arrives I will accept it.”
The encounter was so dramatic that famous Italian pundit Tiziano Crudeli was practically left in tears in the studio when Spurs scored, and again when he thought Zlatan Ibrahimovic had scored a last-minute equaliser only for it to be disallowed.
