Eric Cantona is a French soccer player who led the golden age of 'Manchester United.' Many soccer fans love him and many young soccer player admire him. He is one of the best soccer players in history, but he was short-tempered and he made many problems in the matches. This video is the most popular problem that Eric Cantona did. In the match with 'Crystal Palace' in January 25, 1995, he got a red card because of the revenge tackle. When he was coming to the bench, one audience shouted abuse to him and he got angry and he kicked the audience. Because of this incident, Eric Cantona got 9 months of prohibition of participation.
Later in the interview he said, "When I did the kung fu kick on the hooligan, because these kind of people don't have to be at the game. I think maybe it's like a dream for some, you know sometimes to kick these kind of people." He claimed that he had punished the hooligan who must not be at the game. Of course Cantona is guilty, but the incident happened because of the audience's abuse. I think both Cantona and the audience is guilty, if the audience didn't shout Cantona the abuse, that incident might not happen. Also, if Cantona ignored the audience and came in, that incident might not happen.
Okay, good introduction. You just need two more body paragraphs about the video itself. How many people have viewed it? Did the man who got kicked get any money? There must be more information about it somewhere, so have a look around.
ReplyDeleteI personally think the soccer fans have the right to yell at players without worrying about getting kicked. Without the fans these players don't get paid money, so they should learn to accept the occasional hooligan.
