Bolivian football shamed by flying kick

Did I say shamed? I meant enriched, of course…
You can always rely on South American football to throw up a few vicious brawls, but this is something else:
This shocking series of incidents happened in Bolivia last Sunday during the "clasico cruceno" derby between Oriente Petrolero and Club Blooming. Both teams come from Santa Cruz, and both teams hate each other's stinking Bolivian guts, probably more than I can possibly imagine.
Officials from Petrolero have demanded that Blooming's Sergio Jauregui – the mentalist who almost decapitated Leonardo Medina with the throat-high flying kick you see near the end of the clip – be punished with a three-year suspension from football for the attack. Jauregei also faces criminal charges.

A mere love tap...
I'm curious as to why he is on the pitch. He should have been sent off charging down the opposing player which would have put him in the locker room.Posted 26 Aug 2009 at 11:28 AM by littl3child

Never, ever let him play the game again, at any level. Simple as that.Posted 26 Aug 2009 at 11:41 AM by tomwilhelm

I don't think the guy that got kicked will ever elbow another player ever again in his life.Posted 26 Aug 2009 at 11:54 AM by hadexxx

Ban him from play for life...
Mexican federation can hire him as coach after for the next WC cycle, however...Posted 26 Aug 2009 at 11:58 AM by JohhnyCaps

Yes, it was horrible and wrong and all that, but...that was a pretty sweet flying kick. If he does get banned, that can be his finishing move in his new pro wrestling career.

So what happened in between? Did #9 and the attacker both get sent off and they were both heading to the locker room when the attcker launched theflying kick?
If I was the ref, I would have sent off the attacker after he shoved down #9.Posted 26 Aug 2009 at 12:47 PM by rtung
