The football ‘fan’ who invaded the AAMI Park pitch during Tottenham training in Melbourne has revealed what he shouted at Ange Postecoglou’s Premier League stars
Tagging himself on TikTok as ‘Melbournesmennace’, the man boldly decided to film himself trespassing into the arena (pictured) on Tuesday night.
Security removed him quickly and it is understood that he avoided a fine for a technicality.
Because it was an open training session, not a competitive or exhibition match, he is expected to avoid a fine of up to $5,000 from authorities.
The fan also claimed that he avoided a fine on a technicality as it was an open training session, not a competitive or exhibition match.
A Victoria Police spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia that it is up to the owners of AAMI Park, or Tottenham, whether they wish to pursue the matter.
At the MCG ground on Wednesday night, Postecoglou’s Spurs and Newcastle United drew 1-1 in front of 78,419 fans.
After suffering a 5-4 defeat on penalties, many of Tottenham’s players flew out on Wednesday night for national team commitments or a well-deserved holiday.
“I thought it was a huge effort by the players, considering the journey we had to make to get here,” Postecoglou said.
“Many of them now have a few days off before the Euro Cup (2024 in Germany) or the Copa América… and the rest will have their breaks.”
Postecoglou also indicated that he will quickly return to work before next season after a short break.
“It never really stops, that’s the reality,” he said.
But I will have some free time. My family… we’re going to Greece and disconnecting for a couple of weeks.
