Guest firetotheworks Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Aaron Ramsey scores at the weekend - another famous person passes away. Almost getting scary now. He scored nigh on every few weekends last season and no one mentioned no one dying... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Cameroon player Albert Ebosse dead after hit by object thrown from the stands in match in Algeria. http://www.sbnation.com/soccer/2014/8/23/6061297/albert-ebosse-dies-algeria-ligue-professionnelle-1 Albert Ebosse: Player’s death leads to league suspension Algeria has suspended football indefinitely following the death of Cameroonian player Albert Ebosse, who was hit by an object thrown by fans. The Algerian Football Federation made the decision after a meeting on Sunday. Ebosse, who was 24, was struck on the head when leaving the pitch after his side JS Kabylie's home defeat by USM Alger in Tizi Ouzou on Saturday. Algerian authorities had already ordered the indefinite closure of the 1st November 1954 stadium. That ruling will now apply to all stadiums in the country. The federation has also decided that US$100,000 will be given to Ebosse's family - a figure believed to be the amount he would have earned over the period of his contract. In addition, JS Kabylie's players will each donate a month's salary. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stlouismag Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Looked like something from one of my daughter's U11 games - both the defending and the ball control. Only thing missing was having the shot be directly at the keeper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Was similar to a goal he scored in that 4-1 v Spurs where he miscontrolled and just regained it, tricking the last defender. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Simeone banned for 8 games. That for patting the lino on the head? The Spanish FA has been toughening up a lot in regards to disrespecting officials these past two seasons. It's 4 games for patting the lino, 2 games for protesting his sending off, 1 game for ostensibly mocking an official, and another for watching the game from the stands after being sent off.

Also got a £100k fine from the club. Pity it wasn't a coaching ban, too. Simeone's ban feels a bit harsh when compared to stuff like Mou poking Vilanova in the eye (he only got 2 for that), but the FA protects officials a lot.
