Llull provokes Sito Alonso with a slap on the way to the locker room

Sergi Llull, captain of Real Madrid, was once again the protagonist for his unsportsmanlike behavior in this Sunday's Liga Endesa match against UCAM Murcia at the WiZinkCenter in Madrid. The Mallorcan slapped the visiting team's coach Sito Alonso twice with excessive force on the back of the head when the teams went to the locker room at half-time. The coach's reaction was to leave after him asking for explanations until he was stopped by several players from both teams.

Llull's unsportsmanlike gesture comes as a consequence of a technical foul against Diagne, UCAM Murcia pivot, due to a simulation that Alonso protested. After that, the coach told his team that he should go to the locker room when there were still tenths of a second left to play in the first half. Llull decided once again to take justice into his own hands and lightly attack the coach.

Llull was the protagonist for his punch at Kevin Punter, Partizan's guard, in the Euroleague quarter-final match last season, when the 'white' team was 0-2 down, that is, one game away. of elimination. Llull's action gave way to a general dispute among the players.

Subsequently, the Euroleague issued sanctions that left Partizan without its two best players and Madrid was able to overcome that tie.

On this occasion, Llull decided to go for a rival coach. He first addresses him a few words while slapping him in the face when Sito Alonso was not expecting it. The action went unpunished.
