Also, Drogba got knocked the eff out. That was ugly.

They are looking into making that a rule so that refs can card people for swarming them, and I think they should. I was reading an article where Collina is looking into it for prior to the Euro Cup.
But that was also a pretty blatant back-pass. I dont know how he doesnt call that. The ref also missed at least one clear penalty on Suarez, but he was spot on about the Bolton handball that was just outside the box.
Overall I thought the officiating was pretty good, and Suarez has to tone it down a bit with the complaining, but man, what talent that guy has. He's going to be one of the MVPs of this season, no doubt about it.
