The Ashley Young dive in all its glory
Ashley Young isn’t one to go down easily, eh? He doesn’t really take heed of his manager either. Despite warnings earlier in the season about his play acting, Young fooled the referee into giving a penalty for this:
Justice was done for Real Sociedad however and the goalkeeper saved the penalty from Robin van Persie.
The defender pulled him slightly which is a foul. The ref will never give it if he stays on his feet so what is the problem?
Now you say it like that, no problem. Good point. Long live partial diving to combat worldwide refereeing inadequacies.
