Blatter’s life ban call questioned
MANCHESTER, March 8: FIFA President Sepp Blatter’s call on Friday for players guilty of deliberately dangerous tackles to be banned for life would be difficult to police, according to Manchester United winger Ryan Giggs.
“Dangerous tackling is one of the most important issues in football. Players who do this kind of thing intentionally should be banned from the game,” Blatter told The Times.
Giggs saw proving intent as a potential stumbling block for the idea, telling reporters: “It’s hard in many cases to say if the player has gone out to injure someone.”—Reuters
