BOURNEMOUTH star Justin Kluivert shockingly pulled down the PANTS of Crystal Palace midfielder Ismaila Sarr.
Both players were booked for their part in the heated exchange during the Premier League clash, which ended 0-0 at Selhurst Park.
Tensions were already sky high after referee Samuel Barrott sent Palace star Chris Richards off with a controversial second booking in first half injury time.
After a quiet first half, Barrott had dished out SEVEN yellow cards, with barely a serious tackle thrown in by either side.
But tempers boiled over immediately at the start of the second half in South East London.
Kluivert – who was returning for the first time in weeks- stuck his leg out to foul right-back Daniel Munoz in the 46th minute.
The Cherries playmaker immediately rose to his feet and began pleading the fifth, before trying to restart the game.
But Sarr was standing over Kluviert, who was cheekily trying to play on.
Kluivert then pulled down Sarr’s shorts in shocking scenes.
Both sets of players began pushing and shoving each other, before Barrott blew his whistle again.

Kluivert was involved in the first half drama, as Richards had pulled him down for his second bookable offence.
Replays showed the contact was pretty tame and Kluivert certainly made the most of it.
But the main point of contention will surely be that Alex Scott avoided a second yellow in very similar circumstances just 10 minutes before that.
The referee appeared to tell Scott he would have one more chance and then be sent off.
It was the third Palace red card in the last two games at Selhurst Park.
Eddie Nketiah, Marc Guehi and Brighton’s Jan Paul van Hecke were all sent off two weeks ago.
Oliver Glasner’s side became the first in Premier League history to win a home game having received two red cards that day.
And he avoided defeat today, with the scoreline staying goalless.
