JAKARTA - Preston defender Darnell Fisher faces punishment after being caught squeezing Callum Paterson's penis in a match.
Versatile striker Sheffield Wednesday travels with his teammates to face their Championship rivals on Saturday. Unfortunately, they slipped through Tom Barkhuizen's single goal.
However, there was an interesting and ridiculous incident during the match that went viral online. This was revealed by Sheffield manager Tony Pulis after he watched his team lose.
Fisher seemed to squeeze Peterson's private area while waiting for the ball to die. When asked about the incident, this is Pulis's answer.
"I've never seen anything like it, but I'm sure, with everyone on social media, he will be targeted if he does that," Pulis said as quoted by The Sun, Monday, November 23.

Fans have expressed their displeasure over the incident on social media.
Someone said: "People will laugh about this, but how is it acceptable to touch someone's genitals without consent ?!"
The second added: “I'm confused by this. How can this be received in a match? "

Holding or squeezing an opponent's penis is not new to a match. England rugby player Joe Marler has been banned for 10 weeks for holding Alun Wyn Jones' penis during a Six Nations match against Wales earlier this year.
Marler pleaded guilty, but did not accept allegations that he "grabbed, twisted or squeezed" Jones.
As for Fisher, there has been no further news. But apparently, punishment from the FA awaits the defender.
