In a Saturday friendly match against Tunisia, Algeria’s Under-20 manager slapped at least one of his own players on the pitch after an altercation with opponents.
In a social media video, head coach Yacine Manaa attempted to slap one player and seemed to slap another on his second try. Manaa reportedly tried to separate his players and calm them down during the fight that broke out following a refereeing call, according to local media.
