Jordi Alba reacts to objects being thrown at him in Istanbul
The Barça defender was the target of Galatasaray fans during Thursday's game
Barcelona defender Jordi Alba was involved in a heated moment with Galatasaray fans during Thursday's Europa League game.
The Barça left-back was taking a throw-in when a range of objects, including bottles, were thrown in his direction as he tried to restart the game.
Alba complained to the referee, who instructed him to carry on playing. More objects were thrown and Alba protested: "I'm not playing, I'm not playing."
As the objects continued to be thrown, Alba responded by kicking the ball into the crowd at the fans, which earned him a yellow card.
Meanwhile, the Galatasaray players complained about Alba's attitude as the clock ran down.
