And, good for her, she punches him in the face:
PRETORIA, South Africa — Algeria soccer player Rafik Saifi slapped a female journalist across the face as the aftermath of the United States’ dramatic World Cup victory turned ugly at Loftus Versfeld Stadium on Wednesday night.
While walking through the interview zone, Saifi spotted writer Asma Halimi, who works for Algerian newspaper Competition, and struck her with his open hand in front of dozens of witnesses. Halimi responded by striking the player in the mouth.
Saifi then threw a sports drink bottle at a wall in the interview area, as Halimi was ushered away by security staff.
Saifi came on as substitute for the last five minutes of the USA’s 1-0 victory.
“I said nothing to him and he reached over and hit me,” Halimi said to Yahoo! Sports. “So I hit him back. I said nothing to him first.”
It is understood that Saifi and Halimi had previously had a difference of opinion over an article she wrote for her newspaper.
Yeah good for her. Next time shoot him. Violence is what Soccer reporting needs!
I did a Google Search for this story and the top item in the search was a web site called CelebJihad. What a joke of a site that one is. They called the coward, Saifi, a brave hero and the female journalist wicked. Of course, to these morons, all women are wicked if they don’t dress a certain way or if they are not accompanied by a big ‘Brave’ male and apparently all of their men are brave if they have the b***s to slap a women. Makes perfectly good sense to them. After he slapped her, like a little girl, she punched him in the mouth, giving him a bloody lip. His response? He threw a sports drink at her and missed. So he fights like a girl and throws like a girl. And they say she is the wicked one. They think she should lose a hand for punching him back. Yeah, he sounds REAL brave. These people are PATHETIC!!
