Louis Van Gaal Reacts on the Pulling of Marouane Fellaini Hair: "It is only allowed in sex masochism"

The Belgian who reacted to the pulling of his hair is likely to be punished retrospectively for the off-the-ball incident - but Van Gaal showed why he was frustrated

Fellaini and Huth clash, left, and Van Gaal re-enacts it to defend his player

This is the moment Louis van Gaal grabs a reporter's HAIR after being questioned about Marouane Fellaini's clash with Robert Huth - and then added: "It's only allowed in sex masochism".

Manchester United midfielder Fellaini faces a ban after television cameras showed him throwing an elbow into the face of Leicester defender Robert Huth.
The German appeared to pull the hair of Fellaini and he reacted angrily in an incident which was missed by the officials.
Belgian international Fellaini will now likely face retrospective action and could miss the final three games of the Premier League season, before returning for the FA Cup final.
But Van Gaal insisted it was a "normal reaction" and reached over to grab Geoff Shreeve's hair to demonstrate.

The Manchester United boss then says it's allowed in "sex maschoism"

"I think we played one of our best matches of the season, but it was not enough," he said. "It was a very difficult match for the referee - when you see what Huth is doing with Fellaini, is that not a penalty? [grabs reporter's hair.]
"Every human being who is grabbed with their hair would react."
'Every human being who is grabbed by the hair, only with sex masochism, then it is allowed but not in other situations. They did it. They did it several times I think. "

Anthony Martial had given United the lead early in the piece, before Wes Morgan got the Foxes back on terms before half-time.

The game finished 1-1 which was not enough for Leicester to seal the title, but they will be crowned champions on Monday evening if Tottenham do not beat Chelsea.
A draw moved United to within a point of neighbours Manchester City in the race for the top four ahead of Manuel Pellegrini's side's match at Southampton.
