I hope they start clamping on diving in the sport. Fines (and suspensions for repeat offenders) for most blatant dives/simulations need to be handed out. This part of such a beautiful sport really sullies it for me. I was supporting England today and am on their bandwagon for the finals as well, but that win just feels dirty.
Sterling had dived just a few minutes before that as well on the edge of the penalty box.
Great show by Denmark in the whole completion though. And England deserved the win with the way played for most of the game.
