Samuel Eto'o escapes headbutt rap

Inter Milan coach Rafael Benitez is teetering on the brink of being sacked after his Italian champions crashed 2-1 at Chievo. And to make matters worse he could lose star forward Samuel Eto'o to a suspension after the Cameroon captain's blatant headbutt into Chievo centre-back Bostjan Cesar's chest for which he was fortunate to stay on the pitch.

Cesar was punished for a clash with Eto'o, who picked himself up, ran over to the defender and headbutted him in the chest. TV replays showed Eto'o glancing over at Gianluca Rocchi before the headbutt, while another angle suggested the referee may have seen what took place. Eto'o did not receive any punishment at all.
