Video: Fabio Paratici held back as he shouts at fourth official during Newcastle match

Tottenham Hotspur’s managing director of football Fabio Paratici was spotted involved in a heated rant at fourth official Graham Scott moments after the half time whistle was blown in the Premier League clash against Newcastle United.

The Italian could be seen pointing his finger at Scott and also pointing towards the Tottenham penalty area which in our opinion could be his frustration over Martin Atkinson’s decision to award the Magpies a free-kick which led to their goal.

Paratici had to be interrupted by Davinson Sanchez with the substitute doing his bit to try to get the former Juventus man down the tunnel as he attempted to get his point of view across to the official.

Spurs got their equaliser just before the break when Ben Davies headed in Heung-min Son’s cross.

Many Spurs fans have become accustomed to Paratici’s animated antics during matches over the course of his first season at the club.
