According to Catalan daily Sport, Barcelona striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has revealed his shock at the actions of former team-mate Marco Materazzi in events after the recent Champions League match against Inter Milan at the San Siro. The large centre-back was seen by the Swedesh international chasing down Mario Balotelli into the tunnel, where the youngster was getting, “attacked as I have never seen in my career.”

The incident took place after the controversial Balotelli made untoward gestures toward the San Siro crowd in addition to throwing his shirt on the ground in a sign of disrespect. Inter veteran Materazzi took exception to the youngster’s actions, and went on to attack the 19-year-old in the tunnel.

Ibrahimovic expressed his disapproval of the Inter defender’s attack against a fellow team-mate, but reveals he had not seen what had caused Materazzi such fury.
