UEFA gives Big Phil a break.
By Ana on Oct 4, 2007 in EURO 2008 Qualifiers
Portugal’s coach Luiz Felipe Scolari will be able to command his team from the bench on Portugal’s last game for EURO 2008 Qualifiers. After punching Serbian player Dragutinovic on the face, the brazilian coach got his 4 game penalty reduced to 3 games, when he (and his amazing italian lawyer Gianpaolo Monteneri) appealed to UEFA claiming the decision was unfair.
His defense said that the coach reacted to moral and physical offenses and that he didn’t even hit Dragutinovic (just tried!). The hearing was in Nyon, in Switzerland.
