Dida

[LondonLiverpoolFan]

What a grade A c*nt

 

Now what the fan did was wrong but Dida's reaction deserves a sanction from Uefa as well.

 

Celtic had just scored a 90th minute winner and the fella ran past Dida towards the Celtic players. As he passed Dida he tapped him on the upper chest (his hand may have just brushed his face but it's hard to tell from some of the angles). Dida turned to run after him and then you can almost see the (!) over his head as he thinks

 

"It's the 90th min, we're losing 2-1. If I make a meal of this Uefa may well give us the win/deduct points from Celtic".

 

He then drops to the floor holding his face and is stretchered off clutching an ice pack to the side of his face.

60000 empty seats at Celtic park for the rest of the Champions league for that i reckon, and if thats the case the muppet who ran on the park will be looking for his passport. Dida is c*** though

Here is the damning footage of the cheat in all his glory against Celtic.

Here is the previous footage of when he was harmlessly hit with a flare on his shoulder, after which he goes down in installments and ends up holding his head when he reaches the ground.

An excuse of a man, who is best described as a little bitch.

[New York Red]

What a horrible, horrible cheat. I'd sanction him somehow if I was UEFA.

 

Celtic will need to have some admonition unfortunately also.

[Guest RedLegend]

I imagine Celtic will get a fine. The stewards behind that goal must have been asleep.

 

Nearly wish the fan had chinned Dida properly. The big tart.

[Maldini]

Dida should get a huge ban for that, it was pathetic, blatant cheating, trying to get the match abandoned, it's not the first time either.

[Nerik]

I understand him being shot or maybe dazed by the flare thrown at him a couple of years back but this was far beyond pathetic. Trying to make good for his error which lead to the goal I guess.

[Guest Snorky]

No-one remembers Tommy Smith in Ferencvaros then ?

He was obviously trying to cheat, hardly the point here though. Had Celtic had professional stewards who did their job instead of taking part in the celebrations this would not have happened. Fans getting on the pitch can end badly and Celtic should be severly punished. Didn't UEFA already set the standards in the standards in the Sweden - Denmark game. The game was lost and next home game played at a different location.

No. What happened there?

[Guest Snorky]

No. What happened there?

 

He got hit by a bottle thrown from the crowd, we were on our way out of the competition. Tommy went down 'hurt' about two weeks later.

[Gilps]

Celtic will get a big fine at least for that - however pathetic Dida's reaction was.

[nvdm]

Brazillian in play-acting shocker.

[Stevie H]

disgusting that. crap stewarding, one idiot who today is probably fearing for his life but dida's reaction is absolutely disgraceful. reminiscent of rivaldo in the world cup a few years back.

[Mike]

wait and see what dida claims? once he sees the footage he might think twice about claiming assault.

[cymrococh]

What a horrible, horrible cheat. I'd sanction him somehow if I was UEFA.

kill him and then sleep happily?

[Boca]

. Didn't UEFA already set the standards in the standards in the Sweden - Denmark game. The game was lost and next home game played at a different location.

 

That fan attacked the referee though, who abandoned the game. I think a big fine for Celtic would be enough and Dida should get a suspension for bringing the game into disrepute.

[Guest Kaizer]

Celtic should play the rest of their matches behind closed doors and they should lose this match 0-3.

[Gilps]

Apparently the fan got away. Which doesn't exactly make it look much better for Celtic's stewarding.

[Tones]

Celtic should play the rest of their matches behind closed doors and they should lose this match 0-3.

 

Agreed.

[Gilps]

This should help

 

Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani said the club would not protest about the fan's actions and coach Carlo Ancelotti said he saw no reason for the result to be changed.

 

Galliani said: "It's a decision that I've agreed on with president Silvio Berlusconi."

 

And Milan midfielder Clarence Seedorf said the incident was unrepresentative of the club.

 

"Celtic fans are some of the greatest supporters I know," he said.

[Stevie H]

milan will play a straight bat, they have to given the antics of their goalkeeper.

 

uefa will award the game to milan and make celtic play a couple behind closed doors.

[Ostrich Man]

anyone know what the reaction to the incident has been in Italy?

 

are they calling for celtic to be docked points or are they calling dida a fey cheating c***?

[Billy Dane]

Dida shouyld be fined and made to sit in the stands at Parkhead for 3 games. Should make him think twice about his actions in future.
