Is it conspiring though? If I were a fan of Mexico and they went for the win and it cost them the game I'd be more annoyed than happy that they tried.
To me its no different than sitting your best players down the stretch when you've already made the playoffs.
That and once Italy is out maybe this thread can become something more than just "Italy full of the divingest divers that ever dived" and then the counter argument "No these others guys are just as bad" for 15 pages.
