A Swift Kick to the Small-Market Soccer Groin

Last month I hyped the FA Cup semifinal between perennial English Premier League juggernaut Manchester United and Watford F.C., the George Mason of this year's tournament.

A 4-1 drubbing is not exactly what I had in mind, but at least Watford can look back proudly on this little run once they're bounced from the EPL in a month. ManU star Wayne Rooney scored two goals, which is all they really needed.

But all things considered, they're lucky to escape without an incident like this:



FUN FACT: The Portuguese guy (Portuguy?) that argues to eject Rooney is Cristiano Ronaldo, his Manchester teammate. Awk-ward!
