Everton's Tosun sent off for Turkey after supporters attack his father

Cenk Tosun was sent off under strange circumstances as Turkey drew 2-2 with Tunisia on Friday.

The Everton forward had given his side the lead nine minutes into the second half from the penalty spot, only for Anice Badri to pull the home side level just two minutes later.

The drama unfolded shortly after Tunisia's leveller, with Tosun walking leaving the pitch before launching into an animated confrontation with the supporters in the stands behind the team benches.

Reports in Turkey claim that supporters had thrown fireworks, with some hitting the striker's father and other family members who had made the trip to Geneva to take in the match.
