Football icon sorry after attacking man at World Cup stadium (VIDEO)

Samuel Eto’o issued a statement on social media after the shocking incident

Retired Barcelona and Cameroon star Samuel Eto’o has issued a social media apology after a clip emerged of him confronting a fan at the Qatar 2022 World Cup.

The incident occurred after Brazil’s win over South Korea in the last 16 at Doha’s Stadium 974 on Monday night, which head of the Cameroonian FA Eto’o attended.

In footage viewed more than five million times on Twitter, where it was shared by Spanish news outlet La Opinion, Eto’o initially seems happy to pose for photos with fans outside the ground. 

Eventually, however, he becomes irate with one man pursuing him with a camera and confronts him.

Despite being held back, Eto’o breaks free and seems to brutally knee the man directly in the face, which launches him backwards.
