I was in Kaiserslautern that afternoon sitting at "that" end of the pitch in line with "the tackle".
Yes, I was distraught when the whistle went. But, as Viduka observed, when things cooled down:
... that's football. If it happened at the other end of the pitch I'd have done the same as Grosso. And Harry, Timmy, would do the same.
I've seen examples where Henry, Messi, Rooney & Ronaldo have done the same.
That's football - it's why I love the game that provides 90 minutes of an emotional rollercoaster.
