It was another case of blatant cheating, he was after a penalty and got one, last week we had two players running side by side on the edg of the pemalty area, going nowhere, then their guy decided todrop to the ground trying for a penalty, he got one, while in both cases they should have got yellow cards instead of penalties.
This used to be common in the Italian League years ago, then it spread into our Premier League due to so many foreigb players coming here, now it is the done thing in our lower leagues, its a bit like Covid-19, it has spread very quickly, the big problem is that Refs are tht crap nowadays, they all fall for this divibg, and are only too pleased to go along with it. That player last Saturday continued to dive and fall down throughout the match, but was still on the pitch at the end of the game.
