Are Football fans getting a bit too brutal these days?
Wallabie's coach sudden leave?
Following the 29-28 loss to New Zealand, Ewen Mckenzie announced that he would be resigning from the position of a Wallabie's coach. He did not accept any questions and had kept this away from the football group itself. The members were in disbelief and to make it worse, there was another heart-breaking loss against to the All Blacks at Suncorp stadium after Ewen's departure. Their losses to other teams resulted in much disappointment in the crowd.
What had caused him to leave so abruptly?
Croation boxer's foolish move
Vido Loncar, a Croatian boxer has viciously attacked a referee straight after losing his match with Lithuania's Algirdas Baniulis. The innocent Polish referee, Magej Dziurgot, had been punched numerous times and hit, before Loncar was dragged out the ring by the ankles. Loncar was suspended for life from ever boxing again and has lowered the reputation of Croatia's boxing team. He needs some Anger management, doesn't he? On behalf of Loncar's foolishness, the Croatian federation has apologised to the injured referee's family and friends.
