Video: Brutal foul in opening minutes costs rugby final

Yesterday, the final of Europe's top Rugby League competition - the Super League - was virtually decided in the opening minutes, as Wigan prop Ben Flower delivered a shocking punch to a defenceless opponent on live TV.

Flower, who today apologised for his actions, delivered a hook to St Helens' Lance Hohaia, before pinning him to the ground and delivering another blow directly to the face.
