Norway goalkeeper Rune Jarstein is making headlines at home for aggressive behavior against reporters questioning his performance in a World Cup qualifier against Slovenia.
Jarstein walked out of a post-match interview with Norway's TV2 on Tuesday, throwing a headset in anger, after the reporter asked him if he was at fault for Slovenia's goal in Norway's 2-1 win.
Jarstein apparently had not cooled down by Wednesday, when he reportedly threatened to punch a photographer taking his picture as he left the Oslo hotel where the national team was staying.
Jarstein allowed a rebound on a first-half free kick that resulted in Slovenia taking the lead in Tuesday's match. An injury-time penalty by John Arne Riise salvaged the win for Norway.
