That's not true. There was 1% in posession between the two teams and when you consider the fact that England were playing with ten men for the last hour and looked a lot more like they were going to win it through open play, then it was definitely England that played the better game. Cheating isn't a technicality, it's against the rules and the spirit of the game and a lot of teams that aren't able to play the physical side of the game opt for it. Diving needs to be banished from the game by making it a straight yellow card offence.
