What the picture clearly shows is the striker making contact with the keepers thigh even thought the keeper has the ball around the other side and the defender was between them. She had no chance to get the ball when she chose to kick at it. I saw the play and used it as an example of agressive but not dirty play, bad choice yes, but dirty no. I said so in my post. In no way did I equate it to what happened the other night or even insinuate the body slamming was comparable. (and to say I did is irresponsible
)
My point, since you might have missed it, was on the red card for going over the keeper. I was showing how in a bang bang play players can make bad choices becasue of over aggressivness, it just happens it is not dirty. I was defending her and Clover while also pointing out that the ref could have carded her for what he might have felt was out of control play regaurdless of the alleged contact.
As for the picture thing it was easily available on internet with no need of passwords so if you think there are some devients on here who will miss use it you might want to totally rethink what people put out there. However I am fairly sure it will go away in short time as no photos are posted and old games are cleared out. Which is why I used a link I knew will go away instead of a cut and paste that would stay out there for ever.
