that's football for you. if you lose you're head you'll be in deep doodoo
pero that's the nature of the sport talaga. you've got to be a beast to excel in the beautiful game, sadly, sometimes the ruthlessness goes way overboard

Correction: English expat white boy kicks ethnic chinese in the head.
In the U.S. we don’t go arresting 10-year-olds for soccer violence, although maybe we should. I’m not sure. But in Hong Kong, they look at things differently. It’s the followup to the story we brought you on Wednesday of last week, when a youth soccer match turned ugly and one player, from the ESF (English Schools Foundation) Lions team, was captured on video kicking a 12-year-old playing for Kitchee Escola team in the head during a match. According to reports, it was a rematch of a previous friendly that the Kitchee team had won 16-0.
On Monday the 10-year-old ESF player was arrested, and then released on bail.
At about the 1:30 mark in the video below, you’ll see the Kitchee player, who appears to be ethnically Chinese, make a bad tackle. While thaht player is on the ground, the ESF Lions player, who appears to be Caucasian, ignores the nearby ball and instead kicks the Kitchee kid in the head. London Daily Telegraph:
While the older boy did not suffer a serious injury, his parents filed a police complaint. On Monday, the ten-year-old was released on bail.
“I understand that the parent of the injured child has referred the matter to the police and we will cooperate fully with any police investigation,” said the head of Hong Kong’s English Schools Foundation (ESF) in a letter to parents.
There was already somewhat of a controversy over ESF in Hong Kong, as the government continues to subsidize the school despite it being one of the largest schools for foreign students on the island. The ESF Lions is made up mostly of Caucasian players, who many parents are calling “white bullies” following the incident.

sa pinoy konti sindakan lang, suntukan na agad yan.
i've watched several soccer competitions during the past. makikita mo talaga dun na mas madumi laro vs. bball. sa soccer makakalusot pa yun siko at hard tackle mo, pwede hindi yun makita. tapos problema kasi sa soccer, hirap maka-score. so kapag yun time malapit na matapos ta's yun score mo eh 2-1 talagang iinit na yun laban. marami ako nakita nagkakapikunan sa soccer compared sa basketball. sa basketball kasi pwede ka papetiks petiks lang, sa soccer hindi. mas madali maagaw bola mo dun at mas mahirap yun coordination mo since paa nga ginagamit mo tapos tumatakbo ka pa.
both sport may nakita na ko nagsuntukan. pero mas madalas sa soccer. mainit kasi laban sa mga yan, sa basketball kasi dali habulin nung ilan points kahit last 2 mins na.
never ako natuto ng soccer, altho alam ko kung pano yun laro di ako naka-excel dyan kasi hirap eh. compared sa basket shoot ka lang tas pag di mo kaya pasa mo lang diba .. hahaha
