Sir, - I wish the RTE commentators at the World Cup would stop telling us of players who "win" free kicks or penalty kicks. Such kicks are given when the opposition commits a foul. They are not "won".
What are youngsters to think when they hear of their heroes "winning" a penalty after a performance more suitable to the gymnastics event at Sydney 2000 than France '98? - Yours, etc., B. McKenna,
