Why kanoute hit fabregas

I did not set a good example. That said, there was provocation and an insult. It is not worth dwelling on. His behaviour was as bad, as was mine but the matter is closed. It brought to an end a dramatic 24 hours in the Spanish title race that had begun with Cristiano Ronaldo scoring a minute hat-trick, and ended with Leo Messi having an injury-time penalty saved.

Ronaldo went into Real Madrid's potentially difficult encounter with La Liga's new-money club Malaga not having scored for three games — a veritable drought for a player who has scored 98 goals in games for the club. He put that right in one deadly quarter hour. And how much should FIFA and the league governing bodies be involved? Refs are supposed to protect the players and so they are automatically part of the problem.

FIFA should be greatly involved to protect the sport and the players. Reputation is at stake here. Supporters of Serie A and La Liga should use English fans as an example of how to treat the players, and more importantly, each other. I strongly support that FIFA should be involved and help stamp out racism across the globe. Racism is becoming a major issue in football and players should draw attention on and off the pitch.

Just yesterday, Drogba was being called names not suitable to say. Meanwhile, Barcelona prepare to face Granada tonight in a match that many pundits are predicting to be a walk in the park for the Blaugrana at least on paper.

Barca coach Pep Guardiola has however come out defending his star player saying that Messi is fine and there is no cause for worry. Considering the Plethora of talent Barcelona possess, it would be shocking if the champions failed to win this fixture.

Am a passionate football fan who enjoys every aspect of the game. When am not watching or writing about it, then you can find me on the pitch trying out some of Ronaldinho's neat flicks and tricks! On his part Kanoute posted on his Twitter account how sorry he was for actions. By Stefan Coerts. The Spain international claims his conscience is clear after the Mali forward's claims, following a heated finale to Saturday night's goalless draw at the Nou Camp.
