Cantona VS Supporter

During a face-ff against Crystal Palace - 25th January 1995, Cantona was sent off for a foul against Palace defender Richard Shaw after Shaw tugged on Cantona’s shirt. Palace fan Matthew Simmons then ran down towards the sideline and directed verbal abuse against the French attacker. Cantona then retaliated with the majestic kick to the chest and several punches, resulting in the 1 year ban from football.
