BARCELONA DEFENDER ALBA: DON'T BLAME ALVES

Barcelona defender Jordi Alba refused to blame Dani Alves for his role in Malaga's winner yesterday.

Juanmi scored the only goal of the game after just seven minutes following a glaring mistake by Dani Alves.
Alba said: “We lose as a team. The play with Alves was just one of those things. That's it.
“Dani's handling it like a true professional. The same thing happened to me at Anoeta. It happens to everyone.
“We're still confident. We're not going to use it as an excuse going into the match with Manchester City."

Hull City Manager chides Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen following Spurs' 2-1 win

Following Spurs' 2-1 win over Hull City, City manager Steve Bruce lashed out at Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen for exaggerating to get Hull City's Ramirez Gaston red-carded. Bruce castigated such act as unhealthy for the Premier League. The Uruguayan midfielder Ramirez got the red card for kicking at Belgian Jan Vertonghen. Bruce argued his man only showed "petulance" when he was provoked by Jan. And such behaviour could not be regarded as "violent". The City went down when Tottenham's Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen found the net in the game's second half. Speaking with his news conference, Bruce said, "Ramirez has shown petulance. Vertonghen has had a little go at him, and Ramirez has flicked out. The law says it is a violent conduct. For me, it is an act of petulance -- it is not violent conduct." Via espn
