Elano: Referees need to be tougher
Posted Tuesday, June 22, 2010 by PA
Brazil's Elano believes referees at the World Cup are being too soft when it comes to punishing harsh play.
Elano was stretchered off with a shin injury after a tackle from Ivory Coast defender Cheik Tiote during Sunday's 3-1 victory.
"I forgive because I am not a player that feels remorse," he said. "But I believe referees should be much tougher because in this case the foul was committed close to where the official (Stephane Lannoy) was."
