25 January 1995, Cantona was involved in an incident that attracted headlines and controversy worldwide.

In an away match against Crystal Palace, Cantona was sent off by the referee for a kick on Palace defender Richard Shaw, after Shaw had frustrated Cantona throughout the game by closely marking him.

As he was walking towards the tunnel, Cantona launched a 'kung-fu' style kick into the crowd, directed at Crystal Palace fan Matthew Simmons, a fan who had run down 11 rows of stairs to confront and shout abuse at Cantona. Simmons was alleged to have used the words "F**k off back to France, you French bastard".
