    I respect him for doing it – it will always be remembered as one of the most memorable ever games in World Cup History. Zaire – the nation who turned freekicks into a laughing stock and they should have all been commended in their home Country for doing it, a delight to watch!

    he did it because he was scared that zaire would lose. because zaires dictator at the time was said to have planned to execute them if they lost. So i don’t blame him really!!

    LOL!

    Now come on you …
    Now come on you have to admit that’s a little mean, obviously he knew he couldn’t do that, but there is a reason why he didn’t.

    I suggest you watch “Dirty Rotten Scandals 1-5″ you can find it on this website. Anyways it will explain why he kicked the ball, and then put yourself in his shoes and see how courageous he was to do that . If I was put in his situation, I would kick the ball before the ref even blew the whistle lol. No but really the video is interesting, you guys should watch it.
