They are continuing to cheat. They should learn a lesson from France who don't dive at every opportunity, and instead try to stay on their feet and run past people.

It was karma that they got that penalty. Henry didn't cheat or make a meal out of it. Had that been Ronaldo, he would have gone flying to the ground.

Figo earned a ride on the stretcher with this dive. He was back on the field for the next play.

I agree. They should be called the Portugese National Diving Team :)
