The video, uploaded on platform X by sports reporter Joseph Brown, depicts multiple men engaged in a chaotic street fight. The clip begins with a group of men kicking and pummeling a man onto the ground. However, while depicting the incident, the reporter seemed to have gotten the soccer player’s name’s spelling wrong.

The violent altercation saw multiple punches thrown and it is alleged that soccer player Jamaal Lascelles, Newcastle’s captain, was part of the group too. Wearing a black t-shirt and green gilet, Jamaal kicked and punched a man with his full power and showed no signs of restraint.
