  RIO DE JANEIRO, April 23 (Reuters) - A Brazilian defender was booked for kissing the referee during a match at the weekend.
  
  Television pictures on Monday showed Cabofriense defender Cleberson giving referee Ubiraci Damasio a peck on the cheek after having a foul awarded against him during a 3-1 defeat by Botafogo at the Maracana.
  
  The two were initially involved in a friendly exchange but the referee's mood quickly changed as he pulled out a yellow card and could be seen to say: 'You can't kiss me.'
  
  'I didn't know it was against the rules,' said Cleberson afterwards.

  I quickly went through the rules of soccer here http://www.soccerrules.org/, and I think for a player to kiss the referee, it is NOT a foul.
  
  WhereÂ’s the love, ref?
