copa iba 2006 had it’s goods, bads and uglies, having seen everything much clearer from a referee’s perspective. i don’t think i’m at liberty to discuss what happened, but suffice to say that if the spirit of ‘sport’ can be used as an excuse to behave in such an ungodly manner, then i believe that the devil has certainly mastered it as a tool to negotiate with believers and non-believers alike.
if this were to go on, it will certainly do more harm than good.
but on the other hard, there were many precious moments that put a smile on my face, when players went to great lengths to observe the rules, play and lose fairly, and still shake each other’s hands with smiles on their faces after the match. (thank you, life chapel!)
this is what really makes copa exciting! since when was copa iba really about ‘sport’?!
