Football at the Olympic Games a disaster

I watched Belgium - Brazil, a first round game in the Olympic tournament.

There has been so much written in the newspapers about teams that didn't want to send their players too the Olympic games.

While at first I was against those teams, I now understand why.

Sending good players to such a tournament is one thing, but then sending referees too those games that don't have any idea what football is, is another thing!

It is insulting to the players and there teams that somebody who obviously never led a big game can show there stupidity at the Olympic Games.

In a rather friendly game giving 10 yellow cards! How absurd!!!!

Brazil won in the end with 1-0 with thanks to the referee.

Maybe that will be the only way that the Brazilian team can win the gold medal.

No surprise if their won't be any football tournament at the next Olympic Games.
