On the way running off the pitch I saw a Swiss player boot the Turkish coach or one of the staff, why did he do that?

How come the Turks never get banned for this sort of thing? If that happened in England we'd be out of the World Cup!

They might... Sepp Blatter is on the warpath.

**Dauphin** · November 17, 2005, 10:46

Sepp Blatter is a pompous pratt, only outshone by Michel Platini in that regard.

That's Just a side comment, not at all relevant to the current situation.

**MikeH** · November 17, 2005, 10:46

Very true.

**Dauphin** · November 17, 2005, 10:52

I'm surprised Tuscaloosa cares, but anyway....

Who was that nice man who let Liverpool into the Champions League? I quite liked him.

no idea, I didnt see that occur, but the camera angle at the end of the match was stadium wide and didnt show any upclose of the swiss running into the tunnel

Note the turkish coack trip the escaping Swiss players first.

**Maquiladora** · November 17, 2005, 12:40

Hm i dont think thats the same clip i saw, it was to the left on the touch-line the one i saw, but that still probably tells the same story.

**Lawrence of Arabia** · November 17, 2005, 14:23

wow, what a clip they were really going at it, and that turkish coach did try to trip marco streller on the way in (the guy who scored the clinching goal)
