As James Milner was interviewed yesterday following his final game for Liverpool at Anfield one eagle-eyed fan spotted something absolutely bizarre that Ibou Konate did to a youngster who had joined him on the pitch for the lap of honour.
The Frenchman appeared to throw a ball into the face of the child and although the youngster walked away appearing to be in pain our No. 5 clearly wasn’t concerned as he burst into laughter.
The child soon returned and attempted to get revenge on the former RB Leipzig by appearing to attack him in a playful manner.
We’re not exactly sure what Konate was doing as he launched the ball into the face of the child from close range but thankfully they didn’t look too hurt as a result of the incident.
