Sulley Muntary (the Ghana midfielder in Inter Milan) is reportedly playing while fasting. But there is all kinds of controversy on the table, from his performance while fasting to the manager's (Mourinho) decision to not let him play for long.....

Mourinho got some flak from the muslim community of Italy for saying that. He blamed it on the media people for hyping his quotes, and in typical Mourinho response to the media folks, he said " If I die, you are responsible for it"...lol..
