St Juste shoves Feyenoord medic, sack calls; ex-Sporting row (Video) | OneFootball

Jeremiah St. Juste, former Sporting player, is at the center of a major controversy in the Netherlands after an incident that sparked widespread outrage. The defender, currently playing for Feyenoord, was heavily criticised for his behaviour during the match against Fortuna Sittard.

It all happened in the 77th minute of the match, at a time when the game was particularly tense. With his team trailing, the team doctor entered the pitch to assist the goalkeeper, but the situation quickly escalated.

The 29-year-old centre-back - who has already faced fitness problems since returning to the Netherlands - tried to hurry him off the pitch, eventually pushing him when he insisted on treating Timon Wellenreuther. The gesture was seen as a loss of control and a sign of disrespect on the field.

The reaction was swift and came from several quarters, including Kenneth Perez, former striker and current pundit: "It was the lowest point of an otherwise dull afternoon, especially from Feyenoord. The doctor is grabbed by the collar and sent away. This in public. I hope he leaves the club". Despite the controversy, Feyenoord went on to win the match 2-1, with two goals coming near the end.
