Tennis is usually one of the most respected sports disciplines. The main characters rarely see fights or outbursts of anger. However, Corentin Moutet and Adrian Andreev were the exception last week during the Orleans Challenger in France. Both came on strikes late in the game because there was a small exchange of headers and pushes in the net.
The episode would have cost the players a hefty $10,000 fine., as established by the SPS Disciplinary Commission and according to reports from various specialized media. The match, eventually won by the Bulgarian (Andreev), was marked by tension from the previous warm-up. In a video that went viral on social media, you can see how the French (Mute) tries to hit his opponent several times during practice.. The 247th place in the ranking had to dodge launches twice.
When the match ended, both came out to greet each other at the net, as is customary in this sport. Here they ran into each other and tense moment of pushes, headbutts and punches. The chair judge had to step in and separate them.
The conflict went to social networks
After the game, Mute used his Instagram account to blame Andreev for what happened and accuse him of the challenge and insult. “I don’t want to apologize for what happened at the end of the game. When a player is allowed to say “fuck you” twice while he looks into my eyes, I can’t help but make him understand in my own way that these things are not being done.”
“He threatened me and invited me to meet him on the street, which I did for 10 minutes, but I never met him.. He went the other way, surrounded by six security agents. I look forward to when we can calmly discuss this, ”he said in his stories.
This is not the first time the French have exploded with this kind of behavior. He is already known for his antics, in which he broke more than one racket and clashed with other colleagues.
