THE SCAN SPORT - The young Crystal Palace attacking midfielder, targeted by bottle throws from the Millwall stand, urged fans to keep going before avenging on the pitch.


Michael Olise does not give in to the pressure.

Traveling to Millwall's Den, one of the most hostile stadium in England, the Crystal Palace attacking midfielder reacted in his own way to projectile throws when kicking a corner.

After cleaning the lawn himself, the 20-year-old, hit in the head by the projectile, turned to face the opposing supporters, urging them to continue throwing bottles.

A form of "trash-talking" to respond to these attacks, to which the Franco-British nugget (he evolved under the colors of the French U18s) embellished a personal feat upon returning from the locker room (46th), which allowed the band to Patrick Vieira to overthrow Millwall in the FA Cup (2-1) and the author of the goal to go celebrate in the direction of the local fans.

These images of throwing bottles, which are reminiscent of the events of the first half of the season in France, starting with the football parody of November 21 between Lyon and Marseille, are not isolated in England, where several images of this type were observed last weekend.

Finally, it should be noted that the Eagles' victory was also marred by hompohobic chants aimed at another nugget of Palace, Connor Callagher (21).

The Milwall club (2nd division) has announced that it has opened an investigation to shed light on these incidents.
