SHOCK: Sulley Muntari disgraces AC Milan shirt in a tantrum after his substitution
Sulley Muntari throwing the AC Milan jersey to the floor over his substitution

Ghana midfielder Sulley Muntari exposed himself to global disgrace as his bad temper was on display to the world on Saturday night as he slammed AC Milan shirt to the floor in a fit of temper for being substituted in their Serie A match against Torino.

The AC Milan player reacted angrily and almost violently to the decision of coach Philippo Inzhaghi to tactically substitute Muntari in the match which they were down to ten men.

As the Ghana international arrived on the bench after he was substituted he was given the AC Milan apparel that will keep him warm in the bitterly cold night.

Muntari duly received the items from the AC Milan assistant on the bench but he quickly and furiously threw them to the floor to shown his anger and disgust at being substituted.

This is similar to reaction he made when he was substituted in Ghana's match against Lesotho in the 2014 World Cup qualifier in Maseru in 2013 before his verbal attacks on then Black Stars coach Kwesi Appiah over the substitution led to his suspension from the national team.

His latest action comes less than six months after he physically without any provocation attacked a Ghana FA board member Moses Armah during a team meeting at the World Cup.

It is also a massive PR disaster for the AC Milan star as his reputation for being a violent person grows by day following his recent actions which has been negative for his image.

He recently threatened to smash the face of a prank journalist in Italy.

Muntari's action in the match against Torino is unlikely to go unnoticed by AC Milan leaders who might want to reign him in over his action when he was substituted.

AC Milan were held to 1-1 at Torino in Serie A on Saturday, after playing half the match with 10 men and surviving several misses by the home side.

Muntari's actions on live television in the match shown across the world throws further light into the reasons why he has faced several disciplinary problems with officials of Ghana football following his recent stand offs with the GFA.

Muntari has refused to apologize for his physical attack on a Ghana FA official during the 2014 World Cup which eventually fetched him an indefinite suspension from the Black Stars.

The 29-year-old has been urged by various personalities including his father and numerous of his fans to render an apology for his shameful abuse in Brazil.

But the feisty midfielder has showed no remorse and has refused to tender in an apology which is a pre-requisite for the lifting of his indefinite ban from the team.

He even turned down a fine opportunity to air his side of the story by declining an invitation to appear before the Presidential Commission of Inquiry.

Muntari’s refusal to apologize left Avram Grant no choice but to leave him out of his 2015 AFCON squad despite visiting him at his base in Italy.

The Ghana FA is determined to restore discipline in the Black Stars team following the disastrous showing at the 2014 World Cup.

They have therefore declared the AC Milan star unavailable for international selection until he renders an apology.

    I watched this match,the very moment i saw Muntari's face and body language when heading towards the touchline i knew he will do something silly.Milan was then leading Torino 1:0,he was angry and it was written all over his face but he should have controlled himsel honestly .

    Indiscipline Indiscipline Indiscipline Couple of days ago, I was talking about the fact that these senior players were the main problem for Black Stars. There he is, awesomely proving me right. GFA officials are wrong in so many ways but Ghana without these senior players is much better

    Do we know why he did that? Why are we speculating? Just mind your business, guys. Nobody knows why he did that.

    Are you guys sure he was doing that because he was subtituded or because he showing anger at either the fact that they were not doing well or at something the ref did? I am sure we will know for sure why he did that. Either way, as a professional, I don't think you should let your anger get the best of you on the field especially when the whole world is watching. But hey....it happens to the best of us. I remember when asamoah gyan wanted to fight someone on the field and he got a red card, GSN never wrote such an article about how indiscpline Asamoah Gyan was. Let's be fair here. I like Muntari he is a really good player not selfish at all, a real team player. Gives interligent passes all the time. Great player but just needs a good coach who can talk to him and treat him like a professional.

    I like Muntari but he has anger issues and discipline problems. And don't say its the GFA because they are the ones who stood up for him when Rajevac was about to throw him out in 2010. I want him to come back but he needs to apologize abd change. I don't care what Armah did, Muntari shouldn't have done what he did and ruin team morale like that.

    i do not like the attitude of muntari and im not his biggest fan but the way this news was reported by this journalist is a shame. Very immature and sentimental as though the journalist has peraonal problems with him. Grow up gsn journalist!

    says: 9 years ago
    Banger you are right because the way GSN write the story clearly show that they have something against the player. GSN please remember that sulley Muntari is not only your countryman but also your african brother. No matter how horrible you dislike him but always remember that he is also a human being with feel. hatre never lead to success but it only lead to distruction and unhappiness.

    GSN stop the hate and blame game on Muntari. Out of an incident the might have covered 3 to 5 minutes but you're showing 3 seconds of the happening and try to blame Muntari. Why didn't you quote and Italian media or the AC Milan website in defense of your reportage. GSN filled with primary school story writers claiming to be journalist

    When I heard this stupid Journalists of Ghana talks about Muntari it pains me a lot. stupid and mother fuckers journalists who knows nothing but gays.How can Italia Journalist shows Muntari Nacked photos in front of him and classified Muntari as a gay and this stupid animal class one Journalist always keep on talking about it? Muntari should kill the Italian pig that day and throw him over his house. All these fucking Ghana pigs and damn mother fuckers trying to ruing footballers images. Every player does what Muntari did. He shows to Ac Miland that he is not dirty player, Mario Baloteli does the samething. Wayne Rooney of England does the samething. Christiano Ronaldo does the samething. Elhaji Diouf of Senegal does the samething. Bekham former England captain does the samething. Ronaldinho does the samething. who to blame?that is football you may think you are the best in the field when the coach took you out it would pains you cause you do not want your team to lose. This journalist is a mother fucker and devil. ruing your own family and not other families str_repeat('*',strlen('fuck')) you to hell fire.

    Some so called fans of muntari are not helping him at all. If you guys will take time to read what the Milan fans around the world are saying about muntari, you will rather find some advice for him. There is no way a journalist would not make references to the brazil assault in connection with what happened last night. Character they say is like pregnancy, no matter how tight you hide it, it will surface.

    muntari's behaviours towards the match wasn't the best.he realy needs to be forgiven. as frengzy says we still love him as human been and pray for the gsn to led him come back to the national team , if not ghana will never win any tournament.we don't really need muntari alone but the national players who are playing in the international club,not the ghana premeir league.

    I think the source of Sulley's anger is from years of neglect by CAF,GFA, and other African soccer bodies. This chap has been playing consistently at top clubs and scoring important goals for both club and country for a loong time, especially his trademark long range shots! and yet tell me when was the last time he got nominated for CAF african player of the year or even BBC Africa player of the year? And yet as soon ass the Gabonese, Piere Emerick Aubameyang and other ivorian players rear their head at top clubs they get nominated. Sulley Muntari will be remembered as one of Africa's best midfielders of his time. Recognition or no recognition!

    Leave the guy alone. He's got passion. Do we know why he did that? Sulley is the best. He loves his game and hates losing.
  • Keleele
    says: 9 years ago
    Why would we justify such behaviours with excuses of passion for the game?. Its outrageous! No one will deny the fact Sulley is a good player but I think he should outgrow such tantrums. The excuse of passion for the game should be reserved for young players not an experienced player like Muntari who could meet with the management face to face and express his anger and frustration positively. I am tempted to think Sulley requires Anger Management input in the remainder of his professional career as his anger can potentially facilitate his downfall. Whether you like him or not, whether he had a genuine reason or not, whether he hates to lose or not, display of that aggression on TV can simply be summed as "outrageous"

    So what? Leave Muntari alone, it's Ghana's loss for not inviting him and an opportunity for the newbies too...take your pick.
