In which Inter Milan nutbox Christian Chivu delivers the old ‘Romanian Rochambeau’ square into Bari defender Marco Rossi’s visage and gets away with it scot-free (though not for very long, one presumes)…

Immediately after the game, Chivu told Sky Sports Italia:

“It is difficult to explain, I am here because I want to apologise to Rossi, with all the dignity that I have left.

“I apologise to everyone, above all my two children who one day will watch this clip.”

You’d think for a man who had to get the two halves of his head stitched back together not so very long ago, Chivu might be a little more careful about his on-field conduct these days.

Not so, apparently.
