VIDEO. Eli Iserbyt has beer thrown over him by a spectator, who is immediately arrested: “Crapulous and marginal”

During the Koppenbergcross, an old problem in cyclo-cross resurfaced: a beer thrower. This time Eli Iserbyt (Pauwels Sauzen-Bingoal) had to deal with it. In the third round, a spectator threw a pint of beer at the Belgian champion.

Immediately after the incident, the speaker called for keeping it sporty. And the police did not stop there either. The man was soon grabbed by the wrists and escorted towards the exit.

“It’s very simple. This is crappy and marginal,” Jurgen Mettepenningen, sports director of Iserbyt, was not gentle with the spectator’s action. “Such people are better off staying at home. This has no place in cyclo-cross, cyclo-cross is a beautiful sport. I also think the people who respond behind their keyboard at home are stupid. Supporter for someone, but not against someone.”
