Not content with biting, Uruguay gave Colombia a good kicking

Kicking an already injured player is not going to win you any friends ... though, at least no one got bit.

This seems rude.

Admit it, your first response after watching that is, “geez, what a d***” ... or something similar.

One suspects that Colombia's Pablo Armero felt much the same after getting punted in the backside by Uruguay's Gastón Ramírez. The referee didn't have any problem with it, though. In fact, the only yellow card from the sequence went to Diego Lugano who wasn't even in the match. He was sitting on the Uruguay bench.

At least he didn’t bite him.
