If he wanted to dive he would’ve just dived rather than blasting 3cm of turf out the ground with his foot. It happens all the time and usually a competent ref can spot it’s just an accident
I’m really not arsed about diving I’d want us to dive every game if it meant winning it, but there’s honestly no way he meant to kick the turf and win the pen, that’s just not how you think on a football pitch especially when you’re trying to dive
Got more chance of stubbing a toe than winning a pen, unfortunately the ref was an absolute conehead
Sims you have no clue what he was thinking. You're just making a bunch of assumptions and passing it off as fact.
I don't care either way honestly, but quit acting like you KNOW, when you don't buddy.
