Frankie Hejduk Gets Slapped
From the Washington Post:
At the conclusion of the USA's 2-0 victory over Mexico on Wednesday night in the Columbus wind tunnel, Frankie Hejduk was heading toward the locker room when a Mexican team staff member slapped him in the face. Univision identified the assailant as assistant coach Paco Ramirez.
"I was just trying to pump the crowd up [as he was leaving the field]. I was actually saying, 'F*&% yeah!' I think they thought I was saying, 'F*&% you.'
Hedjuk missed out on the U.S. match in Azteca due to injury, so he wasn't able to use the incident as motivation. This wasn't like the Mourinho love slap to Pujol, which was more out of respect and fun - although maybe a bit harder. Perhaps he was trying to get a rise out of Pujol.
