Mek Intapan, 49, had been watching Romania vs Netherlands on Tuesday evening when he received an angry message from his partner, Nai, ordering him to get back and help her. The vegetable stall owner left after the first half and trudged over to his house in Bangkok, Thailand, where his partner was waiting for him. Unable to contain her rage, she whacked him with a wok shortly before midnight.

They provided him with first aid before transporting him to IMH Thonburi Hospital. Mek explained briefly that his wife threw a pan at him because he was drunk. He said: 'I was drinking in the afternoon then had a sleep. I woke up to watch football with some of the other men. Then my wife told me to go home, so I followed her orders. I don't know why she was so angry at me.' The ambulance crew stitched the 20cm long wound on Mek's forehead and wrapped a bandage around his head. They asked him if he wanted to make a police report but he declined and was taken to hospital to be checked over. Hi wife, Nai, said: 'My husband was too drunk to be outside. I had been working all evening and he didn't even offer to help. I was so angry when he started drinking again. I complained and it escalated into an argument. 'I threw a pan in his direction but I didn't mean to hit him. 'This had made me even more stressed. I'll close the shop and visit him in the hospital.'
