RE: Why doesn't FIFA punish diving in football more?

It has become a part of the game, sadly. That's why you still see people win fouls when obviously they prey on the challenger's mistimed tackle, what we call in my local parlance, "sell it for the challenger"

Sort:  

I just don't see how any club, individual, or organization could possibly have a problem with financial and match-ban penalties being passed out AFTER the game was already finished. It won't affect the result of that particular game if a player determines that it is "worth it" at the time. It would, however, improve the overall game and get the whining cheaters out of the picture for the most part.
