Insiden pijak Scott Parker: Balotelli digantung 4 perlawanan
PENYERANG Manchester City, Mario Balotelli sah digantung empat perlawanan oleh pentadbir bola sepak Inggeris (FA) berikutan tindakan kasar memijak kepala pemain tengah Tottenham, Scott Parker dalam aksi EPL di Eastland Ahad lalu.
Dalam insiden berkenaan, Balotelli terlepas daripada tindakan pengadil perlawanan, Howard Webb yang membolehkan dia muncul wira City apabila menjaring gol kemenangan tuan rumah menerusi sepakan penalti pada minit akhir masa kecederaan.
FA England mengenakan hukuman penggantungan empat perlawanan selepas meneliti kembali rakaman video insiden berkenaan.

Pihak FA mendapati Balotelli bersalah kerana menyebabkan kecederaan ke atas Parker.
Mengulas insiden itu Pengurus Spurs, Harry Redknapp berkata, Balotelli sepatutnya dilayan kad merah oleh pengadil.
Tambah Redknapp, Balotelli tidak seharusnya dibenarkan terus berada di atas padang untuk menjaring gol kemenangan City.
“(Insiden) Pertama bolehlah disifatkan kemalangan, tetapi yang kedua? Dia memijak terus di kepada.
“Saya tidak suka orang yang menendang kepala orang lain di padang bola sepak.”
Balotelli bagaimanapun mempunyai tempoh sehingga esok untuk membuat rayuan.
Jika tidak berjaya (jika merayu), Balotelli mungkin berdepan tempoh penggantungan lebih lama.
Balotelli charged over Parker incident
Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli is facing a four-match ban after being charged with violent conduct by the Football Association.
The 21-year-old has until 6pm Wednesday to respond to the charge, which relates to an incident in which he appeared to catch Scott Parker’s head with his foot during yesterday’s 3-2 English Premier League win over Tottenham.
An FA statement read: “The FA has today charged Manchester City forward Mario Balotelli with violent conduct following an incident in his side’s home game against Tottenham Hotspur.
“Balotelli was involved in an incident with Tottenham’s Scott Parker during Manchester City’s 3-2 victory at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday 22 January 2012,” the statement went on. “Balotelli has until 6pm on Wednesday 25 January 2012 to respond to the charge.”
The one consolation for City is that Joleon Lescott will face no further action for catching Younes Kaboul in the face with his forearm in a separate incident at the Etihad Stadium.
