By the way you better add about 10 countries to your list of teams that dive a lot. Argentina, France, Croatia, Spain, Portugal etc.
Now as for who is the worst is up for debate.
And personally despite my Italian bias i think most of the revilers hate us and Brazil (and France for that matter) because we are always good. between France, Italy and Brazil we have the last 4 world cups and 1 Euro, thats not including numerous 2nd place finished including Italy in 94 WC and Euro 2000, Brazil in 98, France in 06. I may even be missing some.

Since when do people hate Brazil? Everyone loves Brazil. *samba samba*
