Stealing the Referee’s Red Card will get you in Trouble

The idea probably seemed pretty good to the Portugal U-20 player Zequinha at the time. Instead of letting his teammate Mano receive a red card, he would simply take the red card from the ref. No card, no sending off, right? If only life followed such logic. Zequinha was also sent to the showers early. Referees are so selfish when it comes to sharing their toys.

    LOL Thank you sooo much! Zequinha is GODLY!
  • Stupid! Absolutely stupid. This entire team came unraveled. Please visit portugal.worldcupblog.org for a break down of Portugal's U21 and U20 disaster. There was obviously no captain at the helm of this ship.

    Couceiro, show some class and resign!
