I agree with you, something needs to be done about the diving and faking. But it 's hard to do when there's contact because you never really know.
But blaming a loss on bad officiating I will not do. Both sides had bad calls against them. Robben should have had a penalty shot, on the play Van Persie passed it to him, when he got kicked in the calf. Doesn't that even it out?
But to be clear I don't agree with this team got screwed, that team got robbed stuff, or that made it even. The team that wins deserves that win. The losing team didn't get robbed.
Ultimately they made more plays than Mexico, or Mexico made more mistakes than the Netherlands. Whichever way you want to look at it.
If you want a well officiated World Cup I think you need to direct your anger at FIFA, not Robben or any other player that likes to take a dive when convenient.
Oh yeah, and am I the only one who thinks officiating the Offside rule is absolutely impossible? How is the linesman supposed to be able to look at two places at once?(When the ball is being kicked and where the players are in relation to the defenders)
