Just watched Brazil v Costa Rica and left wondering after Neymar's theatrical fall whether FIFA need to start issuing players with Green cards like actors/actresses need to work.
Got to be my age, but loved watching a crunching tackle from a tough CB when I was growing up.
In fairness, Neymar was getting a lot of little niggling fouls against him all game which the ref wasn't giving, BUT that reaction/ fall was comedy gold.

But ref gave pen but now
Maybe players will think before falling over in pen area if var can spot the fakes? In commentary Pearce was saying players now look for pen/free kick rather than keep on tbeir feet!

nope not just you!
When I'm playing ( park level ) If someone dives against me I make sure the next tackle gives him something to cry about.

I referreed at parks level CB and TBH if a player did that on Pontcanna on a wet and windy Saturday morning I'd have fell about laughing, and then probably advised him to apologize.
Shocking.
