I know I’m a yank but tbh I just plain don’t get penalties etc in #soccer #football #worldcup I’m sure these dudes get hurt but it seems to go way beyond basketball/drawing the foul type stuff. The rolling around on the ground is def part of why a lot of US sports fans don’t take soccer seriously. I’m assuming I don’t understand this. But would anyone care to explain it? #CmonCymru

Today, trying to get an opponent carded is (unfortunately) now all part of the game. Hence going down as if poleaxed if an opponent's arm brushes your face
Other's mileage may vary., of course.
