Flip Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Pretty rash tackle from Sterling that. Saw it just now, it's a friendly after all. Although Valencia went a bit nuts there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard that there's no way they'll be suspended for competitive games as that is FIFA rules, will only count towards the next friendly (which I thought was automatic but maybe only happens if the referee reports it?). At least that's the Brazilian commentators, fuck do they know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 You can see from Sterling's reaction that he clearly doesn't think he's done anything wrong. That tackle was absolutely nothing, Valencia's reaction is a disgrace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valencia's reaction is idiotic, but the thought of a leg-break there probably got the worse of him. You could argue it was unnecessary, but a friendly is still a football match. He clearly goes in with one leg and plays the ball. If Valencia was angry and lost it for a second then fair enough, that happens. But there's no reasonable justification for it IMO, except that he was wound up in general. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Shite tackle, shite reaction. No surprise if it's a red card each in a competitive game, bit of a surprise to see reds in a friendly but I don't think either can have any major complaints. Valencia's anger at the thought of Sterling going flying in on the eve of a World Cup got the better of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure it's a footballing match, but I think the reaction is fully warranted in a friendly a week before the biggest event there is in football. Had I been the ref, I'd probably only have sent off Valencia, but I understand the reaction and why the ref gave both reds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
