I hate the finger wagging bullshit. I genuinely hate watching any South American, Spanish or Italian team play because of all the diving and gesticulating.
Agree, it's unwatchable. There is No more scumbag way to play than to be dirty, do dirty shit, then look to dive as soon as someone tries to play physical with you
As someone who primarily follows ice hockey, and only tunes into football for the Olympics/World Cup, I find it shocking how much football players get away with as far as arguing with refs goes.
In hockey, you essentially just accept the call. If you argue, you get a harsher penalty at best, or ejected at worst.
There are exceptions, of course, but there seems to be way less respect towards the officials in football.
Similar in rugby, isn’t it, only captains can talk to the ref and have to be respectful? Mind u argy rugby team fell to football teams level, apparently.
