Antonio Conte is not a man you want to anger but Ever Banega went and did that in tonight’s Europa League final.
The Sevilla midfielder, who had a brief and unsuccessful spell at Inter Milan, mocked Conte’s hair during a feisty exchange in the game in Koln – according to various Italian media outlets.
Conte was understandably fuming about the comment whatsoever and is said to have told the Argentine he would “see him after the game”.
Former Juventus and Chelsea boss Conte is known for being incredibly animated on the touchline and he looked extremely angry in the first half when his side were not awarded a second penalty.
In the below video from BT Sport, you also see Banega say something to the Italian – which started off the heated altercation.
It was Banega who had the last laugh, however. In his last game for the club before he moves to Saudi Arabia, he helped Sevilla to a sixth Europa League title in 14 years following a 3-2 win.
Having opened the scoring from the spot early on, Romelu Lukaku put through his own net for the winning goal in the second half after goals from Luuk De Jong (2) and Diego Godin made the score 2-2 at the end of an entertaining opening 45 minutes.
