Should Crouch’s goal against T&T have counted?
17th June 2006
Being over 2 metres tall, Peter Crouch should not really need any extra help to score from a header. However, as this picture shows, Crouch pulled T&T defender Sancho’s hair as he scored England’s opener in Thursday’s match in Nuremberg. Sancho complained after the match that he had been fouled but few listened. England can count themselves extremely lucky. For years we have heard complaints about Maradona’s “Hand of God”. How is this any different?
