This is one of those moments that requires a shoutout to guys like Miroslav Klose. 15 World Cup goals and not a single one scored by diving. (Unless we're talking about diving headers, which he has scored a few  )
Here he actually goes to tell the ref that he scored with a handball. Would have otherwise been the opening goal of the game.
Guys like Robben can score all the pretty goals they want and win all the trophies they want, I'll never give them an inch of respect or consider them great athletes. |
I also recall an incident where Fat Ronaldo deliberately skied a penalty he was awarded when he actually just tripped over his own feet.
