This one against italians is just a bad prejudice. A stupid one. Things like that happens every week all over the world. Just to talk about yesterday, Giggs kicked a free kick before the refs gave him the authorization and when french players were still preparing, Fergusson said the players of Lille menaced the ref and acted like "mafiosi", the french police assaulted Man UTD fans, Man UTD fans acted like hoolygans, Van Bommell did that horrible celebration.. C'mon! Morons are everywhere. In Italy like in Scotland, in France, in Spain, etc..About Gilardino, he usually ain't the type of player who dives. But he did. He received a yellow card for that (but he didn't even ask for the penalty). He made an horrible mistake. But it's just about it. Don't add a diss against italians, it's unnecessary. I won't blame dutch people for Van Bommell's celebration. Or... i don't know.. africans for that infamous Zokora dives.
a team has the right to take a freekick as quick as possible without any interferance from the referee nor the opposition. the freekick-taker does not need permission from the referee (a whistle). however, if the opposition isnt far enough away from the ball, the attacking team have the right to bring the referee into play to mark where the 10 yard line is for the opposition. only in this case do the attacking team have to wait for the whistle before playing the ball.
and yea... gilardinos dive was oscar material....

The captain of Lille said it. And it looks like Lille is going to protest at the UEFA offices about that. I didn't see that match. I've seen Real-Bayern. So i don't know if the ref was marking the 10 yard line. Is there a video of it? So we can check it?Quoteand yea... gilardinos dive was oscar material....No. It was just stupid. It ain't something to make fun of. It's just something stupid.
the goal was a result of inexperience from Lille. all they had to do was to place a player in front of the ball to force Manchester U to bring the ref into play. as soon as the ref started walking away, the ball could be played
