High time that football introduced a rule banning and punishing embellishment. The increasing trend for hammy acting and massively exaggerating every slight bit of contact is getting out of hand. Even if ther is a foul, refs should be able to award a free kick for the foul but punish the fouled player for exaggeration. I find it almost as unacceptable as diving.
Real win. However, for me, the real winner tonight is BT Sport in allowing it to go out free-to-air -else i (and several thousand others) would not have been able to watch it live. Well done, BT Sport.
All the not actual football fans of Madrid are out celebrating on the street already. Gutted for Atletico: they may not be pretty but they have a lot of heart.
Chuffed for Modric and Bale. I agree with VG, there is no place in football for his antics. Its beyond a joke now how he gives it out at every opportunity and then acts like a big girls blouse when it comes back at him.

You wonder if this might affect the players who are in The Euros
Pepe is just plain shit at it as well though.

And people like Pepe shouldn't be able to taste success. Fucking wanker.
