A good case for introducing VAR. That was a shocking decision by the officials and hopefully the player will get a ban for that blatant cheating... or vividness as it is called in S. America.
The grass is always greener.

Here's a dive which had some, ahem, consequences. It's all in this video .

From one of the angles at pitch level you can see the player goes down as the opposition's leg comes across. If this is the same view the ref had I can see why it was given (and why the player did it).
Doesn't change the outcome of the game but the player needs a lengthy ban for not only cheating but making the ref look like a dick.
There's there's his other comment "One has to take the advantage of the fact that players cannot touch attackers in the area" - um, where does it say that in the rule book and that comment is then blown out because the defender didn't touch him. Does it then mean it's OK for him to touch a defender as he can be seen to be putting his arm into the back of then pushing down on the defender.
What happens though in cup finals or championship deciders where a player 'takes a ban' for the club in order to win a trophy/title, who knows.

I remember Rodney Marsh being called “ the dying swan” by one opposition manager. I don't like diving even when it's one of ours. I don't recall Rodney doing it regularly but time has taken its toll on my memory.

Rodney wasn't a tart, but for a big strong boy he went down rather easily on occasions. Bit like Stan really.
I remember sitting watching Stan dribble into the area back in the day. Whenever it happened the guy behind me always screamed "Go down!, Go down!" as a defender went to him. It worked sometimes!
