What was so bad about what he did? He pushed him in the back! If that challenge was 10 metres away from the technical area or in the middle, there wouldn't have been an issue. The problem was that their bench got involved
It was unnecessary at that point. And Suto was bleeding from the collision with the bench. That led to the red card. There are a lot dirty players but they know when and how to strike.

It was where it happened. It's like pushing someone into the advertising boards or goals posts when they're off balance. They can't protect themselves. It was dirty.

I suspect something must of been said but I have nothing to base that off. It just seemed a big reaction from Kutleshi without being provoked.
 
Law of averages I guess but Japan still have a shocking ROI when it comes to senior tournament success. They've got a massive choke in them every tournament. That's tournament football I guess and there can only be one winner.

WC 10: Cruel penalties after goalless draw against Paraguay.
AC 11: Won despite being the worse team in the final.
WC 14: Last in their 2014 group with losses to CIV, COL and a goalless draw against Greece.
AC 15: Silly off day and lost on penalties to UAE.
WC 18: Led Belgium 2:0 only to implode and that third Belgian goal is horrific viewing.
AC 19: Oddest final losing 3:1 to Qatar.
WC 22: Weak penalties to go out against Croatia.
AC 23: Poised to win it all but a silly air swing penalty and buying into Iran antics sees elimination.
 
No Herrington in this squad is curious...
The Young Socceroos series in China falls during the March international window so if Lucas Herrington hasn't been named in their squad there's still a possibility that Poppa is giving him a callup to the senior side for our FIFA Series games against Cameroon and Curacao instead.

Might even start, he is pretty darn good
