That was a flop and there really shouldn't be anyone arguing the contrary.


There is a difference between a flop and embellishment

Exactly. In no way was it a flop. It was a foul and he got a well deserved PK.

I know you're being sarcastic, but some people actually have this attitude and it's sad.

There's always room for improvement.

How do you challenge subjective calls?

Explain how someone can flop when there is an actual foul? Is the essence of flopping making a foul when there isn't one?

Again, can anyone explain to me why it's a flop when his foot is clearly stepped on? There's a difference between embellishment and flopping.

It wasn't a flop, he got tripped. Marquez mistimed his challenged and stepped on Robben's foot. Robben went down to sell the call and was rewarded for it.

By rules yea it was obviously a foul, I'm just saying the rule needs to be changed IMO. I don't agree with players being rewarded for these acting jobs.

Well then I suggest you stop watching the game. You get fouled hard in the box you go down. Its not flopping. Its just not being a dumb arse. You get fouled that badly and you sell it.

Even if he didn't embellish, it was a foul. That's the point. Whether he goes down easy or not it's still a penalty. The falling and acting has no consequence.

So you think it should be ok for players to step on other players feet?

If someone steps on your foot, it definitely should be a foul.

Look man. You even called yourself a noob. So why don't you just sit back and learn and observe. You clearly do know your arse from you elbow when it comes to soccer. That's OK. You're new. The problem with people like you is that you don't know when to STFU and then you get upset and say the SB is full of dicks. Look in the mirror Buddy.

Maybe soccer does need replay, but even if they had it, the foul on Robben was still a penalty. Robben did embellish, but it was still a foul.

I'm not saying you all are dicks and yea I'm a noob but we allowed to have opinions right? I'm enjoying this tourney a great deal but I just disagree with that rule, it just seems way too advantageous for the guys who get "fouled"
