5 greatest sportsmanship moments in football

Robbie Fowler

It is not often that a big game sees moments of honesty showing up. When you are playing teams like Arsenal, Manchester United, Chelsea, and you are playing for Liverpool, you take all the chances that you get to make a name and win the match for your team.

But not Robbie Fowler. When the referee pointed to the penalty spot after what appeared to be a foul by Arsenal’s goalkeeper David Seaman on Robbie, he immediately got up and said that Seaman didn’t touch him and it shouldn’t be given as a penalty. However, bizarrely, the referee chose to ignore him and insisted that the penalty be taken. Liverpool scored from the ensuing spot kick and went on to win the game.
