Stop crying

FC Nordsjaelland lost 2-5 at home to Shakhtar Donetsk, but the most talked about thing about the match was a goal Adriano scored at the score 1-0 for the Danes, when he picked up a ball that was supposed to be returned to the Danes after fair-play situation.
Of course it is totally against the ideals of fair-play what Adriano did. But it is not against the rules. You cannot be sentenced for being an asshole, but you can for doing something illegal.
Perhaps FC Nordsjaelland should be thankful: they can complain that they were cheated so that everyone can forget that they got their butts kicked!

Hi E,
I agree with you that FCN shall stop crying.

But the interesting thing is how UEFA will deal with the matter. Will this act of "non-fair-play" result in some sort of punishment of the player.
Especially I think it will be interesting to see if the present "non-fair-play" act is regarded worse than e.g. Bendter's underpants.

Have a nice weekend,
