A French amateur league player has bagged a 5-year ban after he bit a rival on his penis in a post-match fight.

The incident took place after a second division game between Terville and Soetrich in Eastern France.

According to local reports from Lorraine, after the match, two players from the opposite teams began to fight.

Then, one other player from Terville joined in, apparently with the aim of settling the dispute. However, the other player from Seotrich responded by biting the peacemaker on his penis.

According to reports, he needed roughly 10 stitches to patch up the injury inflicted on him.

Emmanuel Saling of the Mosellan football district, while speaking to local reporters insisted that the blame was “more or less” shared. Furthermore, he revealed that the incident occurred around the car pack section of the stadium.

Meanwhile, Terville were hit with 200 euros fine and two penalty points for failing to react in the face of the fracas.
