'Van Persie is one stupid motherf***er' - Wife of Besiktas defender reacts after derby red card

Robin van Persie's theatrics during the Istanbul derby between Besiktas and Fenerbahce saw the hosts end the game with 10 men, angering the wife of defender Dusko Tosic.

The Serbia international saw red following a confrontation with the former Manchester United forward falling to the ground after what looked like minimal contact between the pair.

Following the red card, Tosic had to be held back by his team-mates as he tried to engage van Persie before leaving the field.

Fenerbahce went on to win 1-0 thanks to a late goal from the Netherlands international, sending them in to the last eight of the Turkish Cup.
