That is hilarious--but it could (IMO should) warrant a yellow card based on the definition of "unsporting behaviour" based on Law 12.

It reminds me of an incident that happened in an NHL game a few years ago, when Sean Avery of the NY Rangers did almost the same thing to NJ Devils goalie Martin Brodeur and scored later on the shift:

The NHL amended its rules in the middle of the season making intentionally distracting the goalie a penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct (which has been nicknamed the "Sean Avery Rule."

Law 12 says verbally distracting an opponent and acting "in a manner that shows a lack of respect for the game" are both caution able offenses. In case the wording of that law is ambiguous enough to allow players to distract goalkeepers like that, I wonder if FIFA would consider amending the law by putting in a "Steven Taylor Rule" explicitly prohibiting gesticulating to visually distract an opponent.

I can't believe that part of the title to that video is posing the question 'good or bad parenting?'

If you're seriously debating the answer to that one, you deserve to have your kids call Childline.

I think it's safe to say that that Dad went a bit too far. Mental. I wouldn't want to find my daughters doing that stuff on the worldwide interweb but I don't think I'd give them 50 full force lashes with a cable for crying out loud.

Way to go Pops.

That said, when I was about 7 I did get belted with a belt for dropping a stinking load at the side of a football field.
