a two footed challenge which could end someone's career

Is different from stepping on someone in a tussle for the ball. However, i don't think anyone with half a brain disputes what you're saying and most of the Ronaldo stuff will blow over. You have to remember, losing in the World Cup is an emotional thing (for those of us who care about England) and it's usual to look to blame someone else. Ronaldo is such a dislikeable person anyway, it's easy to get angry at him.
