Ukraine coach Oleh Blokhin was involved in an amazing row with a local journalist after his side's 1-0 defeat to England in Donetsk.
In his post-match press conference, Blokhin felt the questioning had become personal and suggested the journalist should 'come outside and have a man talk'.
Then, when the conference had finished, Blokhin pointed to the journalist, and then to the door from which he made his exit.
The journalist declined the offer.
Fiery character: Oleg Blokhin faces up to the press after seeing Ukraine finish bottom of Group D. The 59 year-old also exchanges views with a match official during the game (below)
