Dean, excellent points...

I think like Alexis Lalas said on ESPN feed, it was a cummulative foul.

The ref caused the repeated dive... if he had carded Robben earlier on, he will either stop diving or be subbed off. EVERYONE who watches the game knows that Robben is a chronic diver...

Marquez is who I am greatly disappointed in... he is such an experienced player. To be suckered in by Robben is very disappointing.
Marquez was not suckered in, he was going for the ball every time but Robben is so quick that by the time Marquez's tackle gets there the ball is already gone and he ends up clipping Robben.

people who say Robben is a diver simply do not understand the mindset of a dribbler, i am a dribbler and i know that falling over lessens the impact and pain of a late tackle going for your shins or feet, so it is a natural reaction to avoid the impact and pain and sometimes because he is going so fast the slightest touch will send him sprawling.

but he as admitted to diving in this particular match...

The only dribble you dribble is with ya mouth on CE :lol: :lol: and I am waiting for the day you will get a good tackle for that.

AS,
Has nothing to do with mindset, the guy dives a lot. He sets people up and they fall for it. He has admitted this enough times.
