Brentford's Tomas Strakosha has found himself embroiled in an ugly battle with Albanian fans that has also ended up involving his brother, father and the police.
Lexo cover the situation today after abuse aimed at the Brentford man led to his family clashing with Albania fans.
They explain that during Albania's 1-0 loss to Georgia on Tuesday, which was decided by a super strike from Giorgi Kochorashvili, tensions rose among the Albania fanbase.
They were visibly and audibly unhappy with their team's performance, especially when it came to the Brentford man, and made them aware when they headed down the tunnel at the end of the game.
Strakosha received criticism from fans who believed he could have done better for the goal, despite most accepting Kochorashvili's strike was unstoppable.
Unhappy with that treatment, members of the Brentford man's family, including his brother Dhimtri and his father, who also used to be a goalkeeper, ended up in an argument with fellow fans.
This seemingly escalated and required the intervention of senior security officials to stop matters becoming physical.
Fortunately, the whole situation was settled on the spot and there was no fight, but it appears there could have been had officials not intervened.
