The Jong PSV starlet chased after the unsuspecting midfielder and spat on his back.

The Netherlands Football Association condemned the action with the ban and a statement.

The said: “That’s the worst thing you can do to an opponent, we cannot tolerate this action.”

After the match ended 1-1 – with the Germans missing a last-minute penalty – Teze made his move.

Coach Bert Konterman apologised on the player’s behalf after the draw, he said: “During this quarrel things have happened over and over again that cannot happen. There has been a spit.

“Both we and our team, Jordan himself, think that this does not belong on a football field and certainly does not belong to a player who plays for his country.”

Members of the German media compared the shocking incident to the disgusting 1990 controversy when Frank Rijkaard spat at Rudi Voller.
