Maybe he just tried to kick the ball under the player? I mean if he wanted to kick the player it was a very weak attempt and he should be banned for not kicking that little :censored: harder :oops: :lol: :lol:
Ballboy should be banned.. Hazard should get a ban (if he actually hit the boy and not the ball.. haven't seen it from more than one angle) but something like 3 games or so imo.. 8)

Kid deserves a medal. Did nothing wrong. He was pushed over and couldn't get up as Hazard had his hand on him.

Then to kick the poor kid.... He should be guest of honour at Wembley!

I was right he kicked the ball. This "kid" (he's 17..) is just a *word censored*

Embarrassing and shambolic display by both parties.

A "ball boy" should be an honest lad with some appreciation for the game, not a little showboating twat. Hazard gave the ball a good whack admittedly, but the way people were reporting it I thought he had broken the kids ribs. The kid had NO reason to fall on the ball, he made no attempt to recover the ball in a speedy manner, and when Hazard tried to recover the ball he actually obstructed him from doing so. Kid looks to me like another member of the younger "look at me!" generation, trying to be a hero in front of his friends. He's rolling around playacting for a foul, the same shit that the media are constantly berating players for.

As for Hazard, stupid decision. Not only that, he didn't help his chavvy team look any better, as they've already got enough headaches with their image. They'll both get taken through the wringer by this, especially by people who don't see the video and simply read the headlines "Hazard Warning: Eden Attacks Ball Boy"

The whole thing is a joke :banghead: At 24 I really question our youth these days... or the job being done by parents :|

The lad is a little *word censored*, and he's hardly a kid at 17. Well done Hazard, should've kicked him in the head instead.

Ball 'boy'? More like a ball man!!!! Fucking joke he deserved a kicking what the fuck was he doing laying on the ball? Hazard only toe pokes it away too and the little *word censored* is rolling around like Eboue :roll:

Glad Hazard is to be banned but ban that fucking ball man from ever attending matches again too, wanker :roll:

The Fa need to do what my dad used to do when I used to wind my older brother into a worse reaction, punish both equally. Give both a warning of future conduct and move on. Kid was stupid,his twatter feed shows this which is why he apologised so quickly.

As far as Hazard is concerned in the heat of the moment he allowed himself to get sucked in. A 4match ban tops and stern warning of future conduct. Full public apology....end of story.

OMG....I thought he looked about 12....!

Still think they should throw the book at Hazard though, if only to teach him a lesson for being such a twat as to fall for the kid winding him up!

The kid dawdled a bit to pick up the ball but he only fell down on top of the ball because Hazard pushed him, you can clearly see he was pushed because Hazard was being an impatient asshole. And you can see from another tv replay angle that while Hazard kicks the ball he does it in such a way that the kid feels it in the ribs.

I think the proof is Hazard didn't go up to the kid and say sorry and help him up cuz he knew he got the little shit in the ribs.

He might be looking for a new girlfriend after this. Either way its frikken hilarious and serves the dirty chavski right.

In the highlights when Mata goes for a corner, the same ballboy deliberately tries to throw tthe ball over his head so has to fetch the ball again. He is a little prick.

I'd sign him up though as he certainly holds onto the ball better than Rambo.

Hmm... I can say I probably would have done the same and really don't know what the fuss is really about. If that had been one of the current Arsenal players he probably would have let the ballboy remain on the ball forever without even trying to retrieve it. Anyway, Hazard got the ball as you can clearly see the ball pop out from under the fat lump!

The kid has been taken to hospital and has been tweeting that he's only bruised.....

Last remaining minutes of a semi final that needs two goals and a wee .... Is lying on the ball, what would anyone who wants to win do?

He toe pokes the ball and his shin pad hits the fellas ribs and he reacted as if his ribs were broken roiling round the pitch. Ridiculous! Why was even a "ball boy" at 17!
