  RIO DE JANEIRO, April 23 - 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.
