Martial Godo placed his jersey on one of the corner flags, next to the German fans, and chaos immediately ensued.
The tie between Strasbourg and Mainz, in the Conference League quarter-finals , was marked by an epic comeback by the French team, but also by enormous confusion that ensued after Joao Pinheiro’s final whistle.
It all happened when Martial Godo placed his jersey on one of the corner flags and decided to celebrate near the stand where the German fans were… and the Mainz players didn’t like the gesture. Amidst pushing and insults, several players gathered in that area of the field, and it was necessary to intervene to prevent something more serious. Remember that Strasbourg overturned a 2-0 defeat in the first leg and won 4-0 at home, with goals from Nanasi (26 minutes), Ouattara (35 minutes), Enciso (69 minutes) and Emegha (74 minutes).
