NEW DELHI: In a bizarre incident, president of Cameroon Football Federation Samuel Eto'o was involved in a brawl after Brazil's crushing 4-1 victory over South Korea at the FIFA World Cup in Doha on Monday.
Los Angeles based Spanish-language newspaper La Opinion posted a video on Twitter which showed the 41-year-old former Barcelona star Eto'o having an argument with a man holding a video camera outside Doha's Stadium 974.
Four-time African Player of the Year Eto'o, who was initially stopped by his entourage team, had reacted strongly to the unidentified man's presence and later kicked him as he fell on the ground in the altercation.
Eto'o, who enjoyed a great career with long spells at Barcelona and Inter Milan, was appointed a "global ambassador" for Qatar's Supreme Committee for Delivery and Legacy, which organised the World Cup.
