Inter Milan striker Marcus Thuram has been compared to Vinnie Jones after grabbing the midriff of Atletico Madrid defender Stefan Savic in a bizarre moment.
Thuram and Savic were competing for space in the box when the Inter star got hold of his opponent by the testicles and caused the centre-back to collapse awkwardly to the ground.
The comical moment has been compared to Vinnie Jones' infamous incident with England legend Paul Gascoigne when an almost identical moment happened 36-years ago.
An English top-flight clash between Wimbledon and Newcastle in 1998 set the scene for one of the most iconic exchanges between two players in modern football.
Jones was backing up towards Gasgoigne when he grabbed a handful of his private parts much to the discomfort of his younger opponent.
