	Guardian Unlimited Football \| World Cup 2006 \| Frings misses semi-final after trial by TV footage
		Torsten Frings, arguably Germany's most influential player at the World Cup and man of the match against Argentina in the quarter-final, was yesterday suspended for tonight's semi-final against Italy.
		Fifa imposed the retrospective sanction for Frings' part in the brawl that followed Friday's Argentina match after an Italian TV station had uncovered and broadcast detailed footage, a situation that is likely to inflame tonight's game in Dortmund.
		Frings' Werder Bremen team-mate Tim Borowski or Borussia Dortmund's Sebastian Kehl is likely to replace him, with the task of stopping Francesco Totti if, as expected, he starts for Italy.

		BERLIN, June 20 (SW) - German midfileder Torsten Frings is struggling to overcome a calf injury he picked up during Monday’s training session, ahead of Tuesday’s Goup A clash with Ecuador in Berlin.
		Frings, of Werder Bremen, had to leave the training session at the Olympic Stadium with a heavily strapped right calf and he is scheduled for further tests later this morning.
		With Michael Ballack on a yellow card, it had looked likely that Klinsmann would have rested the German Captain, but it if Frings is unfit to play Ballack may have to be risked for at least part of the match.

		Frings made a timely return for Borussia Dortmund to book his place at Euro 2004 after spending a large part of the season on Matthias Sammer's extensive injury list.
		One of only two outfield players to play every minute of Germany's 2002 World Cup campaign, Frings will most likely be employed in midfield but has also played both in defence and up front in the Bundesliga after five years with Werder Bremen and two seasons at the Westfalenstadion.
		A tough-tackling performer, Frings has earned plenty of plaudits in his homeland and, as one of debt-ridden Dortmund's most saleable assets, has been linked with a move to Bayern Munich this summer.

		BERLIN -- FIFA has rejected reports that the late citing of Germany midfielder Torsten Frings for his role in a post-match melee in the quarterfinals had anything to do with lobbying from Italy -- the host country's next World Cup opponent.
		The video showing Frings appearing to strike at an Argentine player was broadcast on public television in Germany on Saturday, but FIFA's disciplinary committee did not see it until Sunday, Siegler said.

	AM - World Cup: German midfielder Torsten Frings suspended
		FIFA banned Frings from the match for throwing a punch against an Argentinean player, in a brawl that erupted after the quarter-final match on Saturday that saw Germany win 4-2 on penalties.
		But then Italian television stepped in and brought some pictures that showed Frings, who started a blow against Julio Cruz, one of the Argentinean players, and they reopened the case, and now they have suspended Frings, which is to my opinion a hard decision, but I think it's okay.
		The pictures show that Frings' hand is in the face of Cruz and that's why they took this decision.

		He is hoping that he could return for the final game of the season at Hamburg, but his match fitness will no doubt be in question, and this may mean that Germany head coach Jürgen Klinsmann may look elsewhere before he names his squad on May 15.

	frings fans united -- meeting your lutscher needs since '06
		I was told that just after the game, Torsten became shirtless - and a German friend of mine just saw his NEW TATOO ON HIS BACK, right drawn to his spinal columm skin.
		Recently, Torsten has even admitted (sorta bragged) that Juventus are really desparate for him - fair enough, everyone needs to feel wanted sometimes.
		The language is alright to grasp but if he's thinking about having the type of life he has at Werder Bremen, he has to re-think that one.
