There are a few names for what Chile's Gonzalo Jara did to Uruguay's Edinson Cavani in the Copa America quarterfinals, which Chile won, 1-0.
One of my coworkers called it "credit-carding." A friend who played high school soccer with my cousin calls it "checking his oil." My high school basketball coach calls it "cornholing."
There's no way to sugarcoat this: Gonzalo Jara gave Edinson Cavani an involuntary prostate exam. He stuck his finger up Edinson Cavani's ass. Then he fell to the ground and pretended Cavani hit him in the face.
The worst part: while arguing about it, Cavani was shown a second yellow and sent off, then Chile won.
But let's go back to Gonzalo Jara and his molestation, because that's what it was, of Cavani. If you did that to someone on the street it would be called "unlawful sexual contact" and you'd have to have all your neighbors sign a paper for you whenever you moved somewhere new.
This is not Jara's first go-around with attempted sexual assault of a Uruguayan striker, either. Look what he did to Luis Suarez (who then punched Jara. He is Luis Suarez, after all).
THAT'S RIGHT HE GRABBED SUAREZ'S DICK, LEADING TO THE ONLY TIME ON A SOCCER FIELD THAT LUIS SUAREZ HAS REACTED WITH VIOLENCE AND IT WAS APPROPRIATE.
Gonzalo Jara is a serial fondler and must be stopped.
