"Italy the best divers" and more statistics (1 Viewer)

[Akerman]

IBI, British office of Information Builders, has conducted an investigation about different aspects of the world cup.

"To this end, our U.K. office has begun tracking the statistics that really matter, including dives, feigned injuries, tantrums thrown, wrong off-side decisions, complete miss-kicks (air balls), players not knowing their national anthem, and more of the compelling trivia that makes World Cup soccer a world-wide phenomenon.

The reports are built using Information Builders' WebFOCUS Active Reports technology that allow you to dynamically re-sort data, turn it into charts, apply filters and more. Data is updated weekly and will be available for the duration of the 2006 World Cup."

And who defines what's a dive?

Total nonsense.

 

[Badass J Elkann]

Although, Italy is #2 in their "Foul play index" as you can see.

They wanna start learning how to play the game they created instead of whining about divers.

Get over it England, Im sure you got a Life Somewhere?

Yep if you look up diving in the dictionary, you'd probably find his name. The guy doesn't seem to know the difference between water and grass.

That's rather odd considering the fact they made very few fouls and unlike Germany were open to fair play.

What irritates me beyond everything else is that the trabloids blame everyone but themselves. Eriksson played too defensive, Ronaldo whined for a card etc. etc. Why isn't Rooney critisised?! He shouldn't have kicked Carvalho in the nuts, regardless of what Ronaldo said. And it's not exactly his first stupid red card either...

You are tottally righ !!! I'm also thinking about that, and also one thing which I don't understand is why noone didn't complain on the way Lucic from SWE got red card aginst Germany, that was really emberassing.

I hate all those whiners always blaming others for their unsuccess...

For the same reason Van Basten has yet to face the heavy criticism he deserves. If the media love you, you're in the clear.

Well that card was totally undeserved. And the referee has been massively critisized in Brazil.

@ not singing national anthem

@ the lack of "kicked opponents in the nuts" category
