Re: Real Madrid vs Valencia hilarious dives

Where is Di Maria's dive btw? I wanna talk a second look.

And Pepe's wasn't a dive for the umpteenth time, he had the ball, he was in-front, there was contact, even the player didn't say anything. The rolling around afterwards though is obviously exaggerated.

I have to say that you guys are doing a good job ignoring Valencia dives, kudos, stigmatizing Madrid players who were admittedly awful is more important.

For once, you speak the truth. But the funny stuff is the exaggeration and how he kicks his own teamate! Very Happy

That, btw, should have been punished by a yellow card.

Yes, and then he went on running and after two steps he dived/tripped with the ball.

tbh i missed the first half hour but none of our dives i saw were even remotely as pathetic as ronaldive's, ozil's, di maria's flopping around and pepe... rami and guaita spent like 5 minutes on the ground each but apart from that i don't think we dove that much...

and ruiz didn't even touch ronaldive, watch the angle from behind... still pictures from the side ignore this thing called depth perception

Feel free to post them, this thread is open to all dives during that match. Especially the hilarious ones.

who is going to post Valencia dives on youtube? i guess that's the determinant right?

Ronaldos wasn't a dive? Get a grip people

Madrid fans? Razz

When you protest "clipping yourself"= dive.

CR7 should've buried that. Other than that incident I have yet to see one legitimate argument for a dive by a R.M player.

It's true that he dived immedietly after he realized he lost control of the ball, but the contact was there. It's not like he was touched by air, so a FK should had been awarded there

nah, we will find someone to hate or someone to sack, it's easier.

Why are we even making everything about 50/50 decisions? this is why im not a fan of that startegy that revolves around pressuring the refs because it turns, and we looked like we were looking for favorable calls more than we were looking to play and score.

So, if he can continue running normally, and then trips, a free kick should be awarded?

No, if a contact doesn't make you unable to continue with your play, it's not a foul.

Wasn't a dive, should of been a red and a fk

by BarrileteCosmico Sun Apr 08, 2012 11:16 pm

It is when you take 3 steps after the contact to fall...

hahaha good lord judging a situation by a two-dimensional picture Laughing

Exactly

but i cant say iam suprised and he hardly touched him anyway the picture is made to make Ronaldo look like he was fouled watch a video and tell me he didnt dive Laughing

The Valencia defender stepped on Ronaldo's heel, but that does not justify the dive

by free_cat Sun Apr 08, 2012 11:21 pm

To be fair, it didn't look like a dive to me. He just tripped with the ball. Just clumsy.
