David Villa掌擊對手事件 - 世足

國際足聯紀律委員會宣布不會對David Villa追加處罰

Spain coach Vicente del Bosque has received some good news in the build-up

to the Furia Roja's crucial World Cup match against Chile on Friday.



Prolific attacker David Villa won't be suspended for slapping Honduras

defender Emilio Izaguirre in the face during Monday evening's Group H

clash. The Barcelona star failed to control his temper when Spain got

a free-kick minutes before the break and lashed out at his opponent.



"The disciplinary committee examined the incident and found no grounds

to open a case. A case was never actually opened," a FIFA spokesman

was quoted as saying during Wednesday's media briefing.


Villa netted a brace in his side's 2-0 win, but made the headlines for

the wrong reasons following the incident with Izaguirre. The attacker

admitted after the match that he should have behaved differently at

the time.


"It's not something that I am proud of. They're just instincts... in

this case I wasn't expecting him to tread on me. I was merely standing

there and the reaction was to stick my arm out. I'll try in future

to keep my cool," Villa said to Canal Plus.
