Tottenham forward Richarlison has responded to criticism of his keepy-uppies against Nottingham Forest on Sunday afternoon.
Former Liverpool midfielder Dietmar Hamann was critical of the Brazilian's showboating antics on the pitch, which resulted in Richarlison receiving a clattering from Forest's Brennan Johnson.
The likes of Richard Keys, Jamie Carragher and David Prutton have all given their takes on the situation, with Brennan's dad David also having his say on social media. It is Hamann's take, though, that has caused Richarlison to bite back.

On Twitter, Hamann wrote: "Nothing to do with showboating. Should have been booked for unsportsmanlike conduct and restarted with free kick to Forest."
Richarlison has responded directly to the tweet, writing: "Cry more" with a crying face emoji. Two hours after posting the tweet, it had racked up over 80,000 likes and more than 10,000 retweets.
Speaking on Richarlison's actions after the match, Reds head coach Steve Cooper said : “I wouldn’t want my players to do that, what Richarlison did. But if that’s accepted at Spurs then that’s nothing to do with me. But it wouldn’t be accepted here, that’s for sure.”
