It's so constant and ubiquitous in soccer that it ruins the game for a lot of people. It just goes against all ideas of sporting and being manly.


This is such a reach

At least the NBA tries to do something about it. In soccer it's like an integral part of the game. I fricking hate it



The NBA does less. They just slap a fine on someone after the game's already taken place. In soccer they will yellow card you during the match for a dive.

A reach? It happens all the time in soccer.

It happens a lot less, and there's less incentive to do it. What does the MLS or EPL or World Cup do? Nothing

Or, you know, card the "offending" person if the "victim" sells it hard enough.

And FWIW, it totally sucks in basketball too.

I like soccer but his comment is not a reach. Flopping isn't even the word for it at this point. The shite happens multiple times a game, every game.
