A referee in Kuwait refused to be bullied by players after awarding a penalty, and had to physically defend himself from them. Arbitrating
the game between Alnaser and Alarabi, the ref felt the wrath of the
Alnaser players after awarding a penalty against them, while they
surrounded him like hounds, manhandling and intimidating him. Cornered
and feeling threatened, the state lashed out and smashed an Alnaser
player, knocking him to the ground. The mob then eased off, and whilst
the ref re-established order, he sent off a trolling sheikh.
