Wasn't this thread supposed to be about players/goal/matches that most of us never saw?
Now we got Ronaldo, Dzeko, lol.
Back to the roots, fellas.
One of the most horrible fouls in Dutch football, it's not fun to watch (duh) but it's a infamous foul in Dutch football. 2004
Horrible. The KNVB suspended him for 10 matches, Sparta, his own club, actually increased it to "rest of the season". Kokmeijer went under the knife five times, but never played again. Shit even went to court. Kokmeijer brought a civil case against Bouaouzan and Sparta (unjustified bringing it against the club Sparta, though. Wasnt their fault).
The public prosecution actually even charged Bouaouzan with aggrevated assault, an absolute unicum in Dutch football history. Sentenced too, but not that heavily.
Bouaouzan is still playing. Niels Kokmeijer isn't.
