Bile, 16, was sent off in the final straw for the visitors and a huge scrum took place afterwards.

As it was the hosts FOURTH dismissal, the referee was forced to scrap the remainder of the game and award Poland the win.

French youth players ilyes Housni, Jeanuel Belocian and Malang Gomis were all sent off in the 55th, 61st and 72nd minutes respectively.

Then it was finally cancelled in the 74th minute at Limoges during the Lafarge Foot Avenir Tournament showcase, with the Eagles 3-2 up.

The Polish winger had the ball by the touchline.

Bile scythed him down with both feet in the air.

When the opposition player bumped chests with the French youngster, he proceeded to thrust his head into his face.

Bernard Diomede, the France U18 boss, failed to calm his players and the game was lost.

“The coach knows that there is a number nine like Olivier [Giroud] who occupies the defences and I can walk around and go into space.
