Sure, there are bad apples on many of the other continents teams, but the South American's are disproportionate in exaggerated diving. When they don't though, they play some beautiful, beautiful football. |
My comments were mostly addressing this statement, which after thinking it over I made a irrational remark about if Neymar was white and in the premier league people would have different things to say about him. I wasn’t calling anyone in this thread a racist, just expressing frustration with the football worlds perecieved notion of South American players. This was not meant to attack anyone in this thread as racists and my apologies if t came off as such. I promise I will only discuss football and things related to the World Cup from now on in this thread.
Sometimes I get over-zealous in my posts and I forget that certain things can be perecieved differently than I intended.
