FIFA FINES ALGERIA
FIFA on Monday fined the Algerian Football Federation 56,400 dollars for a laser beam shone in the face of Russia's goalkeeper by Algerian fans.
The federation was also reprimanded over the use of the laser beam, flares and smoke bombs during the June 26 Group H game which ended in a 1-1 draw and sawthe Algerians progress to the latter stages of a World Cup for the first time.
A FIFA spokeswoman said Algeria had been 'held liable for the improper conduct among its own group of spectators.'
SABELLA FORGIVES LAVEZZI Argentina coach Alejandro Sabella Monday said he was not angry with Ezequiel Lavezzi for splashing him with water, calling the apparent fit of pique a "positive gesture".
Sabella indicated there had been no comeback after Lavezzi, in what looked like an act of irritation, sloshed water from a drinks bottle on
his suit dunng the 3-2 win overNigeria.
"We know he’s a very special person and... a coach must know his individual players," Sabella told reporters in Sao Paulo.
"Of course we want to have a united team but they all are human beings, they all are individuals and we have to accept they are different people.
"I understood his gesture as a positive gesture."
Lavezzi spent most of Argentina's first two games against Bosnia and Iran on the bench before coming on for Aguero after 38 minutes against Nigeria.
While the 29-year-old was drinking water during a break in play, and taking instructions from Sabella, he splashed liquid over his shoulder and onto his coach's suit jacket.
DUTCH LOSE DE JONG
Injured Dutch midfielder Nige l de Jong's World Cup appears to be over, according to a source at the Netherlands Football Federation.
The 29-year-old AC Milan player -- who referee Howard Webb said he would have sent off in the 2010 World Cup final had he seen more clearly his infamous chest high kick on Spain's Xabi Alonso -- suffered a groin injury early on in the Netherlands' last 16 victory over Mexico on Sunday."It doesn't look good’ a federation spokesman said after de Jong underwent a medical examination on Monday.
Further tests will be conducted in a few days ahead of the Netherlands quarterfinal date with Costa Rica on Saturday.
De Jong came off the field against Mexico in Fortaleza after just nine minutes, with Dutch coach Louis van Gaal declaring the injury was a "big setback" as he plans for the Salvador clash.
WC BREAKS FACEBOOK RECORD Facebook on Monday said that the World Cup has kicked up more action at the leading social network than any other event in history.
More than a billion comments, posts, and "likes" related to World Cup matches have been racked up since the tournament began on June 12, in a level of online conversation never seen before at Facebook, according to the California-based social network.
About 220 million people have taken part in the unprecedented online conversation.
Knock-out matches that took place during the weekend pushed the overall number of "interactions’ at Facebook past a billion.
"Facebook generally sees a large amount of conversation around sporting events, but the World Cup has proven to be a unique network said in a blogpost.
"Facebook's data editors have never measured an event -- sports or otherwise -- that has topped a billion interactions."
NO TO BELGIAN WAFFLES
Waffle House, America's best-known purveyor of the griddled breakfast goodie, is urging a boycott of Belgian waffles ahead of the United States' must-win World Cup clash with Belgium.
"We don't believe in Belgium waffles," Waffle House said on its official Twitterfeed.
In fact, ’Belgian" waffles aren’t offered on the menu at any of the 1,700 Waffle House eateries scattered across 25 states — most of them in the South where their distinctive yellow signs are familiar roadside sights.
Waffle House spokesperson Meghan Irwin told Today.com that the restaurant chain just wanted to have a little fun with that fact and show support for the United States as they battle Belgium for a quarterfinal berth in the World Cup in Brazil on Tuesday.
