Balotelli taking a dive

Denied a stonewall penalty as Balotelli was about to pull the trigger
it was just outside the box but still how can you not blow for a foul there

If there was contact, that one looked outside the box anyway.

Are you blind? If so you would have known from the rule book that IF A PLAYER GETS FUCKING KICKED DOWN ITS A FUCKING FREEKICK
He's Suarez-esque in his ability to do "so well until the finish" as commentators like to say.
A kick?! hahahahahah
He came across his legs, probably a free kick. He didn't kick him down though, that's fucking mental.
Evra's a lucky boy, should have been a pen. We should have scored two since though.
Balotelli gets so unfairly treated by the ref week in week out it's ridiculous. 50% of the yellow's he's picked up were bs.
It was not.
It was not.
Are you blind? Thats a dive

Where was the kick?
He certainly gives him a shove in the back. If the Ref gave that I don't know how Swansea could be surprised, why shove him in the back?
I'm not talking about the hand on his back, I'm talking about the legs.
In my world came across legs = kicked down, it was a freekick.

cheating fuck felt the hand on his back and assumed the gerrard star fish position
"IF A PLAYER GETS FUCKING KICKED DOWN ITS A FUCKING FREEKICK"
Not a kick there in any way in that gif.
That's not a shove :lol
You really are a fucking hypocrite of the highest order.

At first I though maybe there was a tangling of their legs, but it looks like he felt the hand on his back and went down.
And I wouldn't call that a shove dc!

Holy fuck, that was an awesome goal. Ibra 2-0.
If someone gets brought down by the legs, then he's kicked down. Maybe my English is off but he was brought/kicked down and it should've been a freekick.
I'm not talking Ryu Shouroken kick here, it was a simple kick down.
The referee decides if it's a shove or not at the end of the day. All I'm saying is, if the ref gave the penalty for that the Swansea player could only blame himself for putting his hand there like that in the first place when there is no need.
In my world unicorn = sweetcorn, it doesn't make it so if I just say stupid things like that.
That's a fucking ridiculous thing to say, how can an accidental coming together of legs mean kicked down? ASSASSIN SWANSEA

Pepe has been playing great from what I've seen. But when are we going to see il Capitano?

I can't really tell how much contact there is from that gif but there definitely seems to be enough to take him down.
He definitely isn't "kicked" though.

Exactly.
Yeah I agree there, if the ref had given a free kick (any contact was outside the box) it would've been the Swansea players fault for being in that position but I don't see that as a foul.
