Football | Figo free to face England

Ridiculous! That is the best word I can use to describe this. I watched the disgraceful game between Portugal and The Netherlands. The announcers said that the head-butt happened with the referee facing in the opposite direction. So how the hell are they claiming that Figo was already sanctioned by the ref when he never saw it? And if he had seen it, do you really think thsat even this incompetent dolt would have given him a yellow instead of an immediate red?

The disgrace of this game continues and if FIFA does not step in and penalize him properly, then they will have lost the faith of many in them as a governing body in the world of futbol and I for one would call for their disbanding.It is all nice and fine to have banners promoting fair play and an end to racism in sport but if you sit around with your thumbs up your asses, then you are as useless as the people that need to be sanctioned for their ignorance.

Come on FIFA, you can do MUCH better than that!!

Ciao.

Ridiculous is a good word for it.
hmm... play was stopped and awat from the ball he head butts another player? Should be 2 games at least.
As for that terrible display, well it was disgusting but I must say as an England Fan I was hoping for it to go to extra time to bring out some more cards ready for the game next saturday.

Famine
"GO ENGLAND!!"

spoken like a true English fan...

they will have to do something - the world of football fans are uneasy. It would be a shame to see the world's num 1 sport reduced to a laughable state.

maybe it's time for instant replays in soccer with a ref in the booth - and how about some time outs - adn a red flag like in football for the challenge.

please FIFA don't spoil our game!
