Michail Antonio has taken to his Instagram to show footage of him shoving Francisco Sierralta to the ground during West Ham United’s 4-1 win at Watford on Tuesday.
The West Ham hitman captioned the clip with the words ‘sometimes you just gotta handle business’ added with the hashtag of ‘you can’t see me’.
Ravel Morrison, who once donned the colours of West Ham, reacted in the comments section by saying: ‘He didn’t know what he was getting himself into’.
It was a pretty feisty encounter at Vicarage Road, with the Hammers securing a much-needed win and Antonio getting back to his best form.
The Jamaica international was clearly just giving back what was given to him, and in truth, you don’t want to get into a battle of strengths with the player.
Not many players in the Premier League would be able to handle the full force of Antonio, but Sierralta clearly felt that he had a chance.
The Watford players were clearly told to be that more aggressive with those in West Ham colours because Antonio was involved, and punished, in a previous incident.
When the away side were 3-1 up, the very same player was constantly nudging Antonio in the back as he was facing the play.
As the ball fell to a Watford player in front of Antonio, the West Ham man ended up stumbling into him because he was being nudged from behind by Sierralta.
Despite that, the referee still felt it was a foul and awarded a free-kick to the home team.
Antonio was annoyed with the call and made his feelings clear to the referee.
Either way, it was the West Ham man who had the last laugh because he walked away with maximum points and an assist to his name.
