Is there no review of these games where any form of penalty can be handed out after?

Because that is a disgrace, the guys got form, he's purely and simply a cheat.

I don't mind watching soccer, the skill and tactics are incredible at times - but I'll never get into a game where cheating is so frequently rewarded.

Miss the part where his heel it stepped on? Ever play the game and know how much that hurts?

Who is that #4 for NZ, went down in a heap, no contact. Diving scum

You should change your avatar.

De Rossi is an absolute disgrace.

 

[AndSmithMustScore]

I wish De Rossi was playing against a side like the Rep of Ireland circa 1990 WC.

They'd have kicked his cheating arse all around the park.

LOL @ the Santo Sam and Ed that just came on. Reckon that was a coincidence?

When the GC comes in you'll find it pretty hard to follow the AFL.

Not that this is place for a Gold Coast discussion...Carry on everyone.

 

[RoJo Junior]

Wow, the overreaction here pales in comparison with the overreaction for fouls on the field.

The Asian countries are far worse than Italy in the simulation aspects. Honestly, I'm sure you all wouldn't be this upset if Italy didn't play Australia 4 years ago, but how about looking at all the games objectively. Some of the comments are way OTT and ridiculous.

Btw, you were all laughing at a blatantly incorrect non-offside call when Reid flicked the ball on (yes, he did touch it). However when the shoes on the other foot...

Robbie Savage talking on BBC Radio 5: "That's shocking. That's not a penalty, he's hardly touched him. That's a disgrace, it's embarrassing really. There's slight contact and De Rossi, being a professional, has gone down and made a meal of it. New Zealand shouldn't get too disheartened."

I lol'd too , no coincidence there, the whole world knows this about them cheating dogs.

his name is Daniele and he plays like a girl too.

very good player but **** me he is a disgrace. an absolute disgrace.

Italy are just so hate-able. They certainly don't do anything to help their image on the world stage.

absolute bunch of diving, cheating, moral-less ****s

Whilst Australian Football is my number one choice of football codes, I used to really enjoy watching soccer. A lot.

But I struggle to enjoy it these days, for the reasons you've outlined above.

This current match between Italy and NZ is as much slapstick comedy at times as it is serious international sport.

And, as has been pointed out, whilst Italy have been the main culprits NZ haven't been beyond a bit of occasional simulation themselves.

I really wish this sort of garbage could be wiped out of the game.

 

[GrandBlue]

De Rossi is an oxygen stealer. An absolute stain on this Planet.

 

[King Elvis]

Us and the Kiwis should start dishing out some shirt-fronts; the Italians can bring diving and cheating to the table, let's bring something out of our culture to it

The World Cup has really turned into a joke hasn't it.

It's like a reality TV show more then a sporting event now, with cheating, lying, corruption and just plain laughs thrown in.

The Olympics really do put the WC to shame for the best team/person winning on the day.

What a joke.

I hope the Kiwis steal a goal early in the 2nd half, just so we can see the ref give away another penalty or send a Kiwi off for nothing.
