That reminds me, Boulahrouz was today quoted saying: "My philosophy of playing soccer is simple. I get on the pitch to win. I'm a defender, it's my duty to stop the striker. I try to do it in a honest way. I don't kick players into the hospital and do not put my elbow in someone's face. I don't like it and don't need it." (I tried to translate it from Dutch to English as best as I can.)
As much as I believe him, the first thing coming to mind was the Netherlands-Portugal fight. We all know Figo made a brilliant dive in the elbow incident
, but Cristiano Ronaldo still has the scar from the 'tackle' that put him out of the game.
