Ouch
I think we might have reached peak Italian defending.

Wednesday night's Juventus defence against Spurs featured Giorgio Chiellini, Mehdi Benatia and Andrea Barzagli. The last of whom left quite a bit of his studs in a prone Son Heung-min.
Competing for a header, Son found himself on the grass beneath Barzagli who surreptiously landed on the South Korean.
After putting his weight through the foot on top of Son's calf, Barzagli shifted his balance and stamped again. This movement provoked a reaction from Son, who lashed out at the Italian.
Barzagli, who was half-way through an apology to his prostrate opponent, took this as an opportunity to have a third dig.

Neither player was booked for the altercation.
