Football lovers' memory retains distinctive goals and impressive artistic shots that are passed down from generation to generation, but some players have made their mark in the history of the game with other shots away from goals and evasions.

And the Spanish newspaper "Colgadosporelfutbol" published a list of players who practice behavior on the field, confirming the validity of the phrase "football is a noble sport practiced by rioters."

Pasquale Bruno

This Italian player starred in the 1990s, and played for Torino, among other clubs, and during his 16-year career, he was subjected to penalties that prevented him from participating in 50 matches.

Bruno was famous for his distinctive cross balls, but above all he was known for elbowing and hitting his teammates in the face.

Bruno argued every time with the same pretense of being provoked by his opponents.

Rangers V Hearts


14th of September 1996


Scottish Premier Division


Ibrox Stadium

On this day in 1996, a mad day at Ibrox occurred as Hearts lose the plot... The game started off with Pasquale Bruno's repetitive knocks on Laudrup which cost him an early yellow.

Marco Materazzi

Marco Materazzi - also Italian - joins the list of the most violent and fierce players on the field, so that he has become famous among the fans for this behavior, especially his frightening interventions.

Materazzi is known for his assaults on his colleagues, his bad arts, his appearance as a member of a street gang, and his brutal fights all over the world.

Vinnie Jones

Briton Vinnie Jones played in the defensive midfield, and patented a very peculiar style of play, in keeping with his saying that if the ball passes the player will not pass.

Finney received numerous offenses throughout his career, and after retiring he became an actor playing the role of a bully and a strongman, a role similar to what he did when he was a player, and presented artwork alongside such stars as Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Brad Pitt and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Pablo Alfaro

Spaniard Pablo Alfaro was a quiet player outside the field, but he represented a danger on the green. It is surprising that he practically escaped punishment on many occasions, as he mastered barbaric interventions of all kinds and colors, as he was the typical player preferred by every fan in his team instead of playing against him. .

Javier Navarro

Javier Navarro was Alvaro's team-mate, and they played together in Seville, and Navarro - usually - was agitated with his partner, from whom he learned some of his worst arts, but he mastered the bad behavior more.

Not only was he violent for a long time, but he was on the verge of killing an opponent on the field, as Navarro hit his opponent Juan Arango in the elbow, which almost cost the life of a good player who was playing - at the time - for Real Mallorca.

Gente del Sevilla dando lecciones de moralidad y de juego limpio.

Mirad esto: Javi Navarro dejando inconsciente y convulsionando an Arango.

Los mismos que crucifican a Djené, Bordalás y al Getafe son aquellos que celebraban este tipo de acciones.

HIPÓCRITAS.

baby

The Brazil-Portugal defender has lost his mind many times on the field throughout his career and is something the general public knows about, kicking, insults and slaps where it is easy to lose his temper causing excessive controversy.

In fact, you cannot even name the list of barbaric acts that he has done and is still doing in the field.

Roy King

Legendary former Manchester United player Roy Keane could not accept defeat, but his winning personality became violent, as he practiced many barbaric behaviors on the green carpet.

This violent player seriously injured the father of Erling Haaland, who was playing for Manchester City, and the injured player was forced to leave football.

Kane is considered a great player who lost a lot when he lost his mind, which was often the case.

Roy Keane loved a good tackle!

Andoni Goykoetxia

Andoni earned the nickname "The Butcher of Bilbao" for his ability to cut the ankle of his opponents, even causing a criminal injury to Maradona that we still remember after 3 decades, and he also did so with Bernd Schuster, who was also seriously injured, and Andoni participated in the Spanish national team in many tournaments world Cup.

David Navarro

During his time at Valencia, defender David Navarro punched Burdiso after a Champions League match, then had to run off the pitch so that he was not caught by Inter Milan players.

Navarro has once again become the prey of the sensational press after he opened Cristiano Ronaldo's eyebrow in a seemingly involuntary, but difficult to assess move.

Soon after, he beat Cristian Sabonaro, the Zaragoza player at the time, who was also known for violence.

Uffff, Vaya el ojo de Ronaldo por el codazo de David Navarro.

Gerardo Bedoya

Colombian player Gerardo Bedoya almost achieved the record as the most sent-off player in football history, with 46 red cards.

Considered one of the most aggressive players in the history of the game and the most cunning in Colombian football, his misbehavior made him trample his opponent's head on the ground.

Eric Cantona

Eric Cantona was as great a player as he was quick-tempered and bad-tempered on the pitch.

He would usually spit and curse his opponents and inflict injuries on them.

And now he's an actor like Vinnie Jones.

Juanma Lopez

Known as Super Lopez, he was one of the most famous ankle injury players in the 1990s, the kind that Spain's coach at the time, Javier Clemente, liked, made him an international.

Mauro Tassotti

We can evoke this player with the movement in which Luis Enrique broke his nose in the 1994 World Cup. In fact, the bad tackles were a symbol of the Italian star's playing throughout his career.

Nigel Deung

Nigel Deong's kick to Xavi Alonso in the 2010 World Cup final would indeed be worthy enough to make this player on this list, but unfortunately it's not the only one.

Hristo Stoichkov

We can't leave this angry and controversial Bulgarian off this list, Hristo Stoichkov deliberately trampled on rule in the early 1990s, costing him a heavy penalty.

A polemical, provocative and cunning player of the highest technical quality, Stoichkov was in a bad mood all day, yet he pleased the football fans and was also the referee's nightmare.

Sergio Ramos

Sergio Ramos is considered one of the most violent players in the history of football, and has an outstanding record as one of the most sent-off players with 27 red cards.
