WAS MARIO BOLOTELLI RIGHT TO TAKE THE PENALTY AGAINST BESIKTAS. ?

The same old Mario Bolotelli always in the news for the wrong thing as usual. In the Europa League match Liverpool verses Besiktas, Liverpool were given a penalty late in the match, now as Steven Gerrard their regular captain who was injured and acting as a pundit, the armband was worn by Jordan Henderson. Now when Jordan Henderson had the ball in his hands Mario Bolotelli snatched the ball from Jordan Hendersons hand placed the ball and scored the penalty , which was also the only goal of the match. The two points to note here are Mario Bolotelli who is in no great form where goals are concerned ,showed disrespect to his captain. The other point is what if Mario Bolotelli did miss the penalty, then what would have happened? I tajke your memory back to a match of Everton when the regular Everton penalty striker Nathan Baines had the ball snatched from his hands by Mirallas, who then missed his penalty. Now Mario Bolotelli has missed just one penalty in is entire career so far. He did it with Samuel Etoo at Inter Milan as well, but Samuel Etoo refused to let Mario Bolotelli take the penaltyand the Cameroon striker took it. This is why the captain should be a player who is respected,they would have respected Gerrard here.
