We see that from time to time.
A player who shouldn’t be on the pitch scores the winning goal.
When the score was Man City 2 Spurs 2 in 84 minutes, Mario Balotelli tangled with Scott Parker in centefield, caught Parker’s head accidentally with his left foot, then deliberately stamped on Parker’s head with his right foot.
Such viciousness never been a part of football.And nor can it be.
The authorities must take a stand on this one.
Ref Howard Webb looked away at the vital moment and didn’t see it.
That allows the FA Disciplinary panel to ban Balotelli for 4 games.
Simple as.
Footballers know where their feet are. And great players, like Balotelli, know exactly where their feet are. He knew where the ball was, and he knew exactly where Parker’s head was because Parker’s head had just connected with the striker’s left leg.
IT’S OPEN AND SHUT.
One of the most dangerous and deliberate stamps in the history of English football.
Scott Parker is lucky that Balotelli’s studs didn’t rip his ear right off his head.
