FANS spotted Newcastle hero Bruno Guimaraes taunting Giovani Lo Celso as brutally as his side thumped Tottenham 4-0.
Brazilian midfielder Guimaraes slowly counted to four on his fingers in a flare-up with his Argentinian counterpart during Saturday’s Premier League clash.
Some viewers loved the “s***housery” but others reckoned it was “unsporting”.
It came after a double from in-form striker Alexander Isak lit up Newcastle’s impressive Premier League victory.
Defeat dropped Tottenham to fifth on goal difference, with the Magpies still 10 points adrift.

One fan said of Guimaraes’ gesture: “That’s kinda out of order Bruno doing that and his team in 6th, 10 points to 4th, that’s embarrassing.”
Another claimed the moment was as much about South American rivalry as Prem combat.
He posted: “The old Brazil v Argentina rivalry. Only one winner today.”
But another argued: “Surely this is sporting misconduct?”

And another wrote: “Big talk, from a fella who plays for a team that wins f*** all.”
But some viewers loved the exchange.
One said: “Bruno Guimaraes made sure he reminded Lo Celso of the score.”
And forget about South America, another observer appeared more interested in North London bragging rights.
He posted: “Spurs have conceded as many Premier League goals today as Arsenal have in the entirety of 2024.”
