This incident took place in the UAE Gulf League, and the keeper in question is named Ali Saqr.
The thing that I don't understand here is the keeper got the ball out of bounds. He was in a bad situation and comported himself well. The opposing winger didn't score. The keeper should be happy. Instead, he is mad, very mad, and fighting like Homer Simpson.
Here's a snippet of dialogue from an episode of The Simpsons titled "Brother from the Same Planet":
Bart: Remember when Tom had you in that headlock and you screamed, "I'm a hemophiliac!" and when he let you go, you kicked him in the back?
Homer: Yeah.
Bart: Will you teach me how to do that?
Homer: Sure, boy. First, you gotta shriek like a woman and keep sobbing until he turns away in disgust. That's when it's time to kick some back. And then when he's lying down on the ground...
Bart: Yeah.
Homer: Kick him in the ribs.
Bart: Yeah.
Homer: Step on his neck.
Bart: Yeah.
Homer: And run like hell.
Maybe the guy said something to the goalie? Even then, Saqr should have been flying high, having cleaned up a pretty bad mess his defense left him.
