I've been saying for years that football needs a citing system that is already in place for other sports. Referees simply cannot always identify a dive, even those that are obvious when viewed in slow motion or from another angle. Players actively practise diving to make it look real.
Put in place a match review committee with powers to suspend players who cheat in this way.
Would he have gone down like this to progress his side if he knew he would be suspended for the rest of the tournament? Maybe in the 90th minute with not that much to lose, but it would cut down the problem overall.
