De Bruyne and Lucca clash mid-match in Napoli defeat
Napoli lost 4-1 at Porto and the row spilled onto the pitch: Lucca's reported insult to the Belgian, per Italian press.
A clash between Kevin De Bruyne and Lorenzo Lucca overshadowed Napoli's 4-1 defeat at Porto on Wednesday in the Champions League fourth matchday. After another failed move, the Belgian vented his frustration at the Italian striker, who fired back with "Why are you talking?" and then several "Fuck off", according to Gazzetta dello Sport.
Lucca had come on moments earlier, just after the goal that extended Francesco Farioli's Porto lead. Italian media say other Napoli players had to step in to separate them. The video has been widely shared on social media.
Under Massimiliano Allegri, Napoli have one win and three defeats and sit 27th after four rounds. Before the Champions League trip to Manchester City, they host Lazio and Torino in Serie A. They finish the league phase against Sabah and Viking of Stavanger.
