Foul play that's been caught and punished but made to look much worse by the repeated super-slow motion replays we get these days. At full speed it was a stupid hand in the face incident that caught Cole more on the nose than anywhere near the eyes (IMHO of course). And let's not forget, it's a game played by men, not footballers .
Raking or not raking... emotional words, moot point, personal views, but I don't recall any vivid gouges or blood on Cole's face either then or in photographs of the incident. He rubbed his face for 15 to 20 seconds then looked at bit sheepish for his yellow card.sproughton wrote:
