No he should not be charged with assault that's ridiculous, He clearly kicked the ball from under the kid and the videos from certain angles show that,Funny how the kid said on his twitter account before the game that he is going to do all he can to waste time for his side, And next thing you know he is lying on top of the ball haha....And after the incident the twitter account was mysteriously deleted!! Also his dad is a director or something at the club, And finally they have dropped charges! I wonder why
