Eduardo !!

Alla fine ha vinto la verita'. Che non fosse stato un tuffo da meritare la squalifica era chiaro come il sole, ma i media hanno creato il problema e il mostro. Cosi molta gente ci ha creduto anche davanti a un filmato molto chiaro. Eduardo non si e' buttato per imbrogliare l'arbitro e guadagnarsi un rigore inutile. Cosi oggi l"UEFA ha fatto giustizia alla loro stessa prima sentenza e Eduardo non ha piu' quella squalifica orrenda che gli era stata data 2 settimane fa.
La parola a Eduardo, ora, dal sito dei Gunners:

Further to Uefa’s decision on Monday night, Eduardo has made the following comment to Arsenal.com:

“I’m very pleased that we have finally arrived at the truth. All we needed to do was to prove what happened and we have managed to do that. This decision makes me feel a lot better.

“I certainly feel relieved now. I have had great support from my family, friends and of course everyone at the Club.

“Now I just want to forget about this and think about our match against Standard Liege on Wednesday. I was always prepared for the match in Belgium because I had good feeling and I always remained positive about the outcome. Now we have a final result, I can now look forward to helping the team on Wednesday night.

“All I remember of the incident is that as soon as I had possession of the ball I headed towards goal at full speed. I was very close to the Celtic keeper and felt contact on my foot and then lost my balance. I know perhaps more than anyone else that when you have contact at speed it can be dangerous.

“I just want to say that I’m a fair player. To score goals you must take your opportunities and I’m not the type of player who needs to be dishonest to score goals.”
