Dead: Punched To The Head By Soccer Player (Hover)
How sad, something like this should of never of happened if that kid, whomever he is, could just cool his nerves. Now he will spend the rest of his life with this on his shoulders as well as the family and friends.
A family lost their father and a young guy lost his freedom and threw away his life, all because of a few minutes of recklessness. The guy will regret every minute of his life what he did for such a silly reason: a yellow card got during a completely unimportant football match. What a waste.
This is going to make referees even more hardline with their requests at games no matter if its for school, small league or whatever. Players need to be immediately taken off the field if they show any kind of aggressive behavior and there will need to be security there to do it.
