Dutch football legend Arjen Robben (42) lost his temper during a youth match, getting into a scuffle with an elderly referee and shoving a TV host. The incident occurred during a match for the team where his son Kai plays. Robben, who ended his career at his hometown club Groningen, was furious after referee Jan Weissen awarded a penalty to his opponents. During the halftime break, the player confronted the referee and shouted at him. When TV host Wilfred Gernie (58) tried to calm him down, Robben shoved him and called him an "idiot." A video of the incident went viral, drawing criticism towards Robben. Gernie, whose son Luca (14) plays for the opposing "Victoria" team, commented: "My team was leading after the first half, and Robben was angry about the penalty. He kept swearing at the referee, and I thought to myself, 'Come on, this is not normal.' In the break, he went to the referee, and I wanted to advise him not to put too much pressure on the man, but he shoved me and said, 'Idiot.' I initially thought he was joking."
