Tottenham Hotspur player Pedro Porro showed his frustrations after being substituted during his side's clash with Crystal Palace while Igor Tudor's men trailed 3-1
Pedro Porro reacted furiously after being substituted for Xavi Simons by smacking a seat in the Tottenham Hotspur dugout during Thursday's match against Crystal Palace.
Porro, 26, also threw a drinks carton at the floor before taking a seat in the dugout. The Spain international was also shouting over his shoulder after coming off the pitch and was ushered towards the bench by a Tottenham staff member.
He has only just returned from a muscle injury that kept him out of five matches across all competitions. Porro, however, played the full 90 minutes in his first game back against Fulham at the weekend.

Igor Tudor made a double change with barely 15 minutes remaining, with Richarlison also replacing Spurs' goalscorer Dominic Solanke. They were the first substitutions since the team went behind in added time at the end of the first half.
Conor Gallagher and Yves Bissouma both came on to replace Souza and Randal Kolo Muani minutes before Palace went ahead after Micky van de Ven's sending off. Ismaila Sarr equalised from the penalty spot after being brought down by the Spurs defender.
Jorgen Strand Larsen then put Palace ahead in the first minute of added time. Sarr then doubled his tally for the evening and his team's advantage before the break, which was the cue for several Tottenham fans to leave the stadium.
Porro's outburst also followed comments on Wednesday night questioning the makeup of their squad, made during an appearance on the Spanish radio programme El Larguero. He said: "Obviously, when you don't have a squad capable of competing in four competitions, it's tough.
"You see the injuries, and it's a starting eleven that makes you think, 'Wow.' Last year was exactly the same; we had that momentum in the Europa League to win the competition, and the same thing happened in the Premier League.
"You have to build a project to compete in everything and be focused on everything." Porro continued: "Our situation in the Premier League is a disaster, but then you see how we've competed in the Champions League and barely conceded at home.
He also said: "If I could bring one player to Tottenham, it would be Pedri; I'd give the whole team for him." On his own future, Porro said: "When you're little, you dream about a lot of things, but day to day I focus on my reality, and when you think about playing for the best teams in the world, you know you still have things to improve."
Peter Crouch believes Porro and his teammates have plenty to improve on. He said on TNT Sports: "I don't think there is quality. The best players are out injured. Tottenham are bang in trouble ... There's not enough leaders out there."
