Basketball players do the same shit nowadays. Even your beloved hockey has its floppers
Hockey is a contact sport in which you need to wear armour to survive. These soccer clowns feel a light breeze then hurl themselves to the ground, lol. And basketball? Please. Those guys are over 7' tall and fight over an uncontested hoop. How did @Shlomo Lars put it again?

This one was awesome. It was at the world cup. Rivaldo is a beast and he caught a ban for it
The person who kicked the ball got in trouble. The ban for rivaldo was after the match because the media caught up on it

If FIFA wanted to stop this bullshit, they could easily do so.

Any player who, upon reviewing the video evidence, clearly dived to try to draw a foul, gets a 5 match ban plus a fine equivalent to 10% of the wages they would earn in that time.

Any player who, upon reviewing the video evidence, clearly faked an injury to try to get another player yellow carded or sent off, gets a 10 match ban plus a fine equivalent to half the wages they would earn in that time.

Take away their ability to play, plus put a huge dent in their wallet, that shit would stop with a quickness.

How much do you want the fine to be? The whole point of soccer is to give the poor people of the world something to play.
I would like the fine to be zero but 200 is laughable.you get a bigger fine for being on your phone while driving.pro atlethes usually get 50k fines unless its soccer where you get paid less than a bellator prelim fighter

I'd be somewhat surprised if a coach who was wearing a Cops suspect uniform was being paid at all. My favorite thing about soccer is how Euros pretend they aren't just clinging to it because it's the one sport where North America doesn't beat the fuck out of them.

If hockey and handegg players were really brave they wouldn't wear padding or helmets. Lets face it they aren't brave at all. Football players are just clever and tricky trying to get opposing teams sent off for an advantage. Don't hate the playa...

They penalize them in basketball. They fine them if video review shows a player flopping.

Players still flop.

HandEgg is pretty fun to play.

More fun IMO if you are good at it and a "star player"

It takes a real toll on the body though, my neck is a bit jacked and my brains probably got scrambled.

what is the injuries that are common among footballers? Knees and CTE from too many headers?

I like both, would have played both but I had to choose because they are the exact same season here.

I might be able to watch the sport if this pussy shit wasn't so prevalent. It's infuriating.

One of the reasons why I don't watch the NBA.

You generally don't see it at the college level other than selling a charge. But at least when they do that there is SOME contact.

The soccer pussies are diving from zero contact. Nothing.
