Cristiano Ronaldo - v1

Some people are still living in a denial. Would be better for them to move on and accept the truth. No need to try to degrade Cristiano just because he according to them is an arrogant prick and because he plays for the rival.

He is a great footballer.

He holds the wrong side of his face for starters :facepalm: gone are the days where men were men and don't want to be gotten the better of by someone, showing that another man 'hurt' you and roll around on the floor, it is embarassing. It is a little harsh to single out CR as he certainly isn't the only one, but it's beyond pathetic.

Hilarious you talk about CR reaction while not a mention that Chiellini shouldn't be doing this in the first place... considering there was no one en route to Buffon the ref was right in my book

i mean, sure its not the best thing but to romanticize the past is fallible, diving has been around for a long time and there were some really bad offenders long ago however now that we have 20 cameras for one game and easy circulation of media everyone is much more aware of it existing.

Chiellini simply shit his pants as he has in many big games.

While i thought the card should have been a yellow I didn't feel sorry for Chillelini nor was I pissed up since your not allowed to raise your elbow to anyone's face period. In this way, I thought it wasn't that the ref got the rules wrong, you simply cannot raise an elbow like that but the angle wasn't best for him to call it a foul/yellow instead of a sending off. Either way, we can't be made at Ronaldo, Chiellini was trying to use an illegal means to gain an advantage himself, if he hadn't gotten caught and stopped Ronaldo from a scoring opportunity, would you all complain the same way?

Why the obsession with diving? An infringement (uncalled) that gives advantage is an infringement that gives an advantage, whether it be a slide or a dive. Is one type of infringement a merely a more "manly" way to gain advantage?

I believe in both the red & the penalty it was the side /behind goal ref that gave the ref the clear picture... it was clear in both cases he was informed through the mic
