The jeers rang out from the supporters after Sunday’s match against Antofagasta after the referee blew the final whistle in the middle of a counter-attack, consigning them to a 0-0 draw.
But 41-year-old striker Abreu was having none of it and shouted back at the fans before picking up a table in front of the stand and throwing it towards the crowd.
Despite his anger, Abreu was joking about the bizarre incident a few minutes later on social media, when he posted a picture of himself sitting at the table.
“A visit from [Sebastian Flores] to brighten the day a little after the night that I had,” the forward aptly nicknamed ‘Loco’ tweeted.
“I left with an anecdote and I hope that the team comes out of this bad run. Just in case, this table is screwed tight.”
More than a table-throwing striker, Uruguay international Abreu is the Guinness World Record holder as the player who has represented most clubs, with Audax Italiano the 26th team in his career.
