Did anyone watch the Real vs. Getafe game? It was a great game the last 15 minutes, Higuain scored in the 93rd minute, but before that Pepe caused a penalty, which Iker stopped, but when the player was on the ground Pepe tried to kick him twice, luckily he missed, but he will probably be suspended for the rest of the season and than some next season. My homerness would usually say people are overreacting, but this was a dirty, dirty cheap shot. I'll look for a youtube video later.
[video=youtube;LyoSSy32UhQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyoSSy32UhQ[/video] Looks to me like the Getafe player goes down fairly easy, and Pepe was severely displeased by that, so he goes about kicking him in the shins and then raking his boots across his back. The two pictures of the second kick look a bit harsh, but this is still ridiculous. Pepe was out of control to the point that Iker tried getting the Getafe guy out of Pepe's way, rather than dealing with his teammate as you normally would. The video doesn't have any of the punches thrown. And the penalty by the Getafe player was a weak shot and Iker made the save.
Marca says he will be suspended six games, meaning the rest of the season. I'm a Real fan, but that isn't enough. That was just dirty.
