Generally I am not a big football fan, don’t support any particular team, but have always enjoyed watching the ‘big’ teams play and have enjoyed most of the matches of this World Cup. But one thing that has got me going during this competition is the amount of diving that is going on.
Over the course of the last few matches it really has got worse, with tonight’s examples by Ronaldo being the worst of all. How someone did not get up and give him the traditional ice-skating 6.0 – 6.0 – 6.0 score cards I will never know.
I class this as cheating, in so far as at least four goals have come from dived-obtained free kicks! FIFA have got to stamp this out otherwise many casual fans like myself will continue to see this as a increasingly negative side of what should be a great sporting event.
