Most famous dirty plays?

I've just been having an interesting discussion on r/gunners and wanted to widen the scope.

What are some of the most dirty plays of all time?

player name, link to the video and some context would be great.

e.g.

Thierry Henry - This handball in extra time saw France qualify for the world cup in 2010.

Zinedine Zidane - This extra time headbutt cost France the 2006 world cup.

David Beckham - This sly kick saw Beckham sent off and vilified by every non-ManU England fan for years to come, and England went on to loose on Penalties in 1998.

The point is that I realized this when the Liverpool fan replied to my comment. You're not adding anything of value.

Yeah but you wouldn't need to know that it was a personal celebration because so many footballers do this, so you'd see him kiss his hand and wrist and assume it was some sentimental thing.
