Galatasaray defender Marcao is facing a 10-game ban after sensationally headbutting and punching his own team-mate in a 2-0 win over Giresunspor.

The Brazilian remarkably lost his cool in the Turkish league game when he furiously approached Kerem Akturkoglu and landed a nasty headbutt on the winger.

Footage then shows the 25-year-old hitting Akturkoglu with two punches before the pair are separated by their Galatasaray team-mates.

Marcao was unsurprisingly shown a straight red card following a VAR review that will also likely see him a lengthy ban for his actions.

The incident occurred in the 61st minute of the Super Lig clash on Monday, with Galatasaray already leading the encounter by two goals before seeing out the game to cling on to all three points.
