Nice dive by Eto'o. I only give him a 8 for style though.
Dive, followed by a red for Kaboul, who was surprisingly calm, I woulda get sanctioned for referee abuse after that.
I don't know if he's always been guilty of doing this... but is something he's been doing all season and the first time I really take notice. Very disappointed in him as a player for his simulations.
Does Suarez still player at Liverpool.
I feel sometimes man does have to fake and dive because people are held to different standards - allow me to explain. This by no means excuses the divers or diving but some of the tackles coming in sometimes seem to be adjudged harder when they are on certain players and then not so for others.
Iniesta, If yuh only touch dat little guy he on de floor and if we ask ourselves here if he's a diver, we might decide not but he still light like a feather to the touch. Shouldn't YaYa get the same foul for the same level of tackle, one that may make Iniesta fall down but not make YaYa budge?
African players and africans in general,can't seem to do anything with skill or tact in the media's eyes - is only brute force & muscle we get credit for which also must mean, we could clearly take more kick than the average Joe . If Serena playing, everybody else hits with such grace and skill/placement but she only seems to be able to hit with power! Maybe man like Eto have to roll around on de ground so that we can continue getting the soft fouls and be treated like world class athletes and not only have the whistle blown for break-foot tackles as was in yester-years. De situation has changed but lingers even to today!
IMO, set the standard the same, fall or not, African or not, Big Scandinavian dude or not, rollin around in agony or not, not rolling around in agony or not. Blow de same for everyone and then I'd fully cry down man like Eto.
