Despite easing to yet another victory this winter at the latest round of UCI World Cup action in Hulst, Mathieu van der Poel blemished his performance somewhat by seemingly spitting at a fan in the crowd on the last lap.
With the victory in the bag, the world champion was able to ease towards the finish line in Hulst. As he rounded one of the corners on the final lap however, van der Poel pulled over to the side of the course, near the fans and targeted a certain individual with some well-aimed spit.
According to his immediate comments post-race, this particular section of fans had been booing and abusing him throughout the day.
Check out the shocking scenes for yourself in the video below!

Poor behaviour on two peoples part. You gotta be bigger than that Matthew but fans like this yelling oddities. I wouldn’t want my kids next to them. Why at a sporting event. Can you yell obscenities at someone that doesn’t make it right either.
