Incredible moments in the Eredivisie. An assistant referee was assaulted by an angry De Graafshap fan. Everything happened in last weekend’s Dutch league match played between De Graafshap and PSV Eindhoven. Watch this event in the video provided below.

The visitors where leading 2-0, as De Graafshap managed to score. The goal was not allowed because the linesman raised the flag for offside. If you check the above replay you can see that this was the right decision.

However, an angry home supporter assaulted the assistant referee and sending him to the ground. What do you think about this subject? Share your comments.

The security must have been asleep at the switch.
