June 25, 201511 yr Something stinks about this one... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLi77IRY8Zc Watch Gonzalo Jara stick his finger up Edinson Cavani's BACKSIDE during unsavoury Copa America clash - Mirror Online
June 25, 201511 yr So "Stink Finger" did that to goad "Latin Fabio" into retaliation and then flopped to get a penalty called on "Fabio"? :no:
June 25, 201511 yr It's going to be hilarious when (if) that tournament is on American soil next summer. It has a reputation for being completely insane.
June 25, 201511 yr The refereeing in soccer HAS to get better to address this kind of stuff and the flopping if the sport is to optimize popularity in the states. It is way to much of a tactic and even to a soccer enthusiast as I am, it takes me to a point where I won't watch it.

CONMEBOL just had to throw an Argentine team out of this year's Copa Libertadores because a fan sprayed some sort of eye irritant onto the opposing team's players as they were headed out of the tunnel.

Wow. We were talking soccer last night at a business dinner: Irish, English, Norwegian and three Germans about just this kind of thing. The Germans all blame the Italians for starting the flopping tactics. :clap: Of course the Brits always quote Gary Lineker: Football is a simple game. Twenty-two men chase a ball for 90 minutes and at the end, the Germans always win. :lol2:
June 25, 201511 yr How many brown cards before you have to sit out the next game? I may have the answer to my own question. A big pile of them.
