Video: Lewis Holtby tackles referee Howard Webb during Ledley King's testimonial

Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Lewis Holtby tackles referee Howard Webb during Ledley King's testimonial match at White Hart Lane.

Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Lewis Holtby sparked a roar of cheers from the crowd in White Hart Lane by tackling referee Howard Webb to the ground during Ledley King's testimonial game.

The match official, who is the FA's representative at this summer's World Cup in Brazil, refereed the friendly on Monday evening.

After nicking the ball himself, Webb fell to the ground following a tackle by Holtby, who dramatically collapsed to the pitch himself when Webb got back up and gave the German a playful nudge in the back.

Take a look at Webb getting tackled below:
