Spot on from the commentators on itv though, talking for the last few corners about how Mexico don't have anyone outside the box to challenge for the second ball, and they paid for it there.

Any player would have gone down there, was fouled.
Yeah but not 5 times in every fucking game. He is a cheat. You can tell that by how shocked the commentators where when he stayed on his feet and tried to score like he fucking well should.

It looked like he had his foot stepped on, the problem tends to be the theatrical method he uses when he goes down...plus he does dive quite often.

Robben ran better than anyone on that pitch but yeah he was good at diving, reminds me of Sturridge who would go down if anything came near him.

Silly action by the defender, but that reaction defies the powers of physics...I stand by my comment, he's a dicing cunt!

He was also fouled big time in the first half which the ref just waved off

If you are talking about when he made sure he stepped on the defenders foot and then threw himself over like he had just been hit with a 12 gauge then i disagree it was not a foul. He showed in the second half that he can avoid these tackles and try to score but so many times he will leave his foot in or swing his leg out to make sure there is some contact before falling over like a character form Mortal Kombat. There is no need for it.

Should've had two penalties for that one. Mind you, Mexico should've had one when one of their players got hoofed in the face.

I've always loathed Robben, but he was fouled and in the 88th minute of the game, totally right to go down.

You dont fall to the ground arms waving all over the place when your toe is stepped on...he could easily have stayed up.
had that not been the case he would have stumbled on a few steps and then fallen..the cunt dived, end of story...

He could have stayed up, but why would he do that? That would be stupid. Its not a dive if you're actually fouled, and he was.

You know what is sad though? When he did stay on his feet he missed, his cunty theatrics won him a penalty in the end though which won the game. Which is why we are seeing it more and more. Eventually you will not need a striker that can shoot the aim of the game will be get to the box kick a defender and fall over.

You make it sound as if the mexican defender plantet his foot on Robbens entire foot, not even close, he grazes his boots, and Robben preaty much jumps from that point. I'd hardly call that a foul.

but hey, at the end of the day, stupid decission by the defender, looking at the replay, Robben wasnt going anywhere, and he preaty much got the most out of the situation.

He does. He steps right on top of his foot. Its a clear foul. And even if it wasn't, I'll say again, 88th minute, round of sixteen, 1-1, are you a moron?

Name calling, how cute..so a presumed missed call at 88 somehow merits a dive later?
odd fellow you are, and no,
