This is double standard and a plot ochestrated by some elements. . whrn zidane gave an headbut to an Italian player ,how many match ban do they give to him ?


I qm a kopite and it is regrettable that some ex Liverpool players are lashing out on luiz Suarez that help them to qualify for champions league. I can bet with anything ,Luiz Suarez will never step on Liverpool soil again and we will see the downfall of Liverpool in the champions league and the demise of liverpool's top 4 at the end of next season.

Guy, stop comparing both. Zidane headbutted Italy's Marco Materazzi, good and fine. Would you as a person, continue to what you know is wrong?! Is this the first time your almighty Suarez is trying that? Guy, sentiments aside, he deserves the ban!

At last our naira is back, devil is a liar. Back 2 suarez tins me i dey tink is not ordinary or is he practicing a vam...pire tins.

Zidane got 14 red cards in his career. This is
not a bad record too. in Fact heading players
and fighting was very frequent with Zidane. I
remember at least 2 head beating from Zidane
when he was at Juventus, one stamping in
world cup 1998, and just before the world cup
2006 he punched a villareal player and got
sent off. Yet , in addition to the Golden ball he
was given the medal of honor in France. In
Fact that year FIFA changed the rule and
Zidane was given the Golden ball. Mattarazi
was made the victim. However I wonder if he
could have been considered so great if he was
very often critisized like Suarez does even
though Suarez has lesser bad record. The
problem with poor countries is that they have
less power overall and specifically in the
media. FIFA follows very much in that since
the media's from big countries and small
countries are penalized, due to the lack of
clear rules on how punishment are handled.

The Argentina icon criticised the decision to
suspend the Liverpool striker from all
footballing activities for four months for his
bite on Giorgio Chiellini
Diego Maradona has slammed Fifa for its
decision to ban Luis Suarez for four months
after he was found guilty of biting Giorgio
Chiellini.
The Uruguay and Liverpool striker was given a
nine-game suspension and banned from all
football-related activity for four months for his
third biting offence in almost four years.
And Maradona, who wore a t-shirt with a
message of support for Suarez which read
'Luis we are with you', has criticised world
football's governing body, claiming they are
treating him as though he committed a far
more heinous crime.
"This decision is a disgrace," he said on TV
show De Zurda. "I can't understand this. Who
did Suarez kill to get this kind of ban. Why
don't [Fifa] handcuff him and send him to
Guantanamo [Bay]?
"A player works hard the whole year to be able
to play at the World Cup, and Luis scored 29
goals [sic] and they kick him out of the World
Cup like this. It's unbelievable.
"Remember [Zinedine] Zidane and what he did
in that [2006] World Cup final? Fifa then gave
him the Golden Ball," he added, before
laughing.
The show then broadcast a discussion
between Maradona and Uruguay defender
Diego Lugano, who insisted the ban was
harsh.
"They treat him like a criminal," the captain
said. "Escorted by the police [out of the
Uruguay camp]. He did nothing. How wouldn't
I defend him at that press conference?
"He's such a great guy. This ban is very harsh.
It hits him at the very top of his level. At the
best moment in his career."
