Agreed to that completely. Also I didn't mean it was necessarily appropriate so much as that Colombia seemed to think so! As to the particular play that broke Neymar's back, THAT was definitely out of line, but I'm also not sure it was intended to be that bad. It wasn't exactly an accident, but I don't think he intended to break the dude's back..

speaking of which-- what's worse? a broken spine or a tooth mark? it's funny how the suárez bite becomes a circus but neymar's injury was merely attributed to "una jogada".

I agree that the Neymar injury should get more coverage BUT the Suarez incident was part of a long standing narrative of him cheating in big games. There were RUNNING bets on when he would bite somebody! So who the cap fit, let them wear it yo. This was Suarez's fifth strike, meanwhile we can give Colombia as a team the benefit of the doubt for now.
