Oh, and while I’m on a rant, here’s another thing: a few years ago, there was a player named Suarez - brilliant ball handler and striker. On three different occasions (that I am aware of) he BIT opposing players. And what did their teammates do about it? They whined to the refs. That guy should have had all of his front teeth knocked out by the other opposing players, right then and right there in the field.
He’s still playing for the Uruguayan national team. They were eliminated in the opening round.
