Kaku Earns Red for Violent Conduct Against a Fan

The final moments of a 2-2 draw between Sporting Kansas City and the New York Red Bulls was marred by the behavior of Alejandro Romero Gamarra, better known as Kaku. In the 93rd minute, out of apparent frustration, Kaku intentionally kicks a ball full force into the crowd and hit a fan in the first row.

First, it appears the fan is okay according to our own Jimmy Mack and the KC Star’s Sam McDowell. Jimmy’s tweet read:

“Ilie said the man who was hit by Kaku didn’t see the ball coming and was bleeding.
