As I was watching the games this past weekend I could
not believe the blatant diving the occurred, but this is common place in
today’s game. When challenging a ball where contact occurs I agree with
embellishing the foul to gain a free kick but the video below titled
“It’s an Easter miracle, Suarez rises from the dead” on most sites is one
example of how diving should needs to be dealt with by the league heads.
As I mentioned before that I
understand that over acting a foul can put you at an advantage but it makes you
look like such a terrible person, especially when you don’t even make contact
with the other player.
The referee saw the whole play, if Liverpool did not
push the ball after the tackle on Suarez there would be a definite free kick
but what if after Suarez got to his feet after what seemed like his leg was
tore off, received the ball and scored. Would that be a goal? Yes it would
because the league does not call back goals and Suarez would be branded the
villain as he is right now. He continues, along with many other players to make
these blatant dives and it has been ruining the game forever. Sure, he did limp
around and seem like he was in pain after the play stopped and I know he
probably ran because he wanted to score for his team but COMMON! He is
notorious for this type of stuff. He is such an amazing talent but oh man, this
guy is one of the worst players when it comes to diving, HE EVEN BIT A PLAYER!
Check this video out of Suarez's antics:
All leagues need to get their act
together and start handing our suspensions and harsh fines for these Oscar
winning performances! FIFA finally decided to add goal line referees let’s hope
some more changes can be made.
