Peru Players Give Ref the Andy D’Urso Treatment

Posted: 30 Dec 2008 07:10 AM PST

This is from a recent friendly between the Peruvian national team and Extremadura. Which is techinally a Spanish football team, but Extremadura is also an autonomous community, so this was also sort of an international. I think.

Anyway, Peru led 2-1 with the final whistle approaching, until the ref awarded Extremadura a spot-kick. No worries though, because it’s only a friendly. Right? Wrong.


The Peruvians felt differently and gave the poor ref the full Andy D’Urso vs Man Utd treatment. He did some pretty nifty back-pedalling but refused to change his mind. They never do, do they? So why do players bother?).
