Football was a Fuzzy game. The Samba magic was pure and unadulterated fun to watch until that 'color coded' World Cup 2006 match between Portugal and Netherlands. This game proved how men think and react to win games. Reactionary Tactics can control the win loose situations as Louis Figos did in the match. Figo's 'brilliant' but unprofessional mind game was the start of an ignominous match. Picture this;

Portugal lead by one goal, and just before halftime control the game. Just then a stupid brainwave hit a Portugal mid-field player(Coutinha) who earned a 'red card'. Portugal go into the second half with just ten men, to defend their one goal lead.
Figo sensed the gravity of defending or attacking with 10 men. Just into the second half, Figo targets a Netherland Defender. Figo picks up a fight by butting the Dutch player on his head. In the process, he earned a yellow card. The dutch player reacted to Figo's push and that lead to the referee showing a Yellow card to the dutch player. The first tactic of Figo is accomplished.
Five minutes into the game, Figo runs with the ball and teases the same defender to tackle. A hard tackle and an unintentional knock on Figo's head. If only FIFA instituted an award for the 'best agony and pain act' it will go to Louis Figo. He covered his face and fell on the ground. He had accomplished his goal. The Dutch defender was shown his second yellow card, which meant he had to leave the field. Figo worked it out so nicely, thus making it even steven. Now, both Portugal and Netherlands were playing with 10 men. The ridiculous thing about the whole episode is the portugal coach defending Figo by saying he reacted like a professional, and he is not Jesus Christ. Poor Scolari, he under estimated Football Fans.
