Quote:Once again; surroundings and situation are irrelevant. If the referee believes a player was fouled inside the box he has no choice but to award a penalty.

And it is this reason that players will always flop.

Quote:And at least soccer doesn't blatantly change the rules in favor of the offense like the NFL has done over the past decade.

Im pretty sure flopping is already favoring the advancing players enough in soccer. We don't care if soccer change their rules so that we can see more goals, we just don't want see people flop.


Having watched this World Cup, I at least understand why it is a beautiful game, but there's no way I can appreciate all that soccer has to offer when I see a player biting another player then he fell to the ground holding his jaw as if someone punched him in the mouth.
