The World Cup should be the showcase for soccer skills and teamwork. Instead we have the embarrassing spectacle of grown men feigning injury to secure penalties and free kicks.
A great game between Spain and Portugal was spoiled by prima Donnas making a sucker out of the referee.
If rugby players acted liked that, they would be laughed off the pitch. Head injury assessments have had to be introduced partially to stop rugby players from playing on despite being concussed.
Start sin binning soccer players for feigning injury or arguing with the referee and the beautiful game might be less like a game for wimps.
