Ex-Super Eagles skipper, Vincent Enyeama, fortunately, escaped physical attack by Lille fans on Saturday.
Lille’s Ligue 1 clash against Montpellier ended in chaos when home faithful invaded the pitch and accosted players on Saturday.
The hosts were held 1-1 in a tight encounter, with Nicolas Pepe’s first-half goal for Lille cancelled out after the break by Montpellier.
But the real drama began after the final whistle when Lille fans streamed down from the stands to attack their own players.
Pepe, in particular, found himself the target of aggression, while the rest of the team were barracked on their way back to the dressing rooms.
Enyeama, who has been in exile from the first team since this season, luckily missed the assault as he didn’t make the matchday squad.
All of this happened under the watchful eyes of Lille owner Gerard Lopez and sporting director Marc Ingla, who were present in the stadium as it unfolded.
Lille currently lies 19th in Ligue 1, one point shy of safety after 29 games of the season.
