Eduardo charged for diving

No what's pathetic is that UEFA have no back bone, they did the right thing in the first place, as he was blatantly cheating. It's unlikely that they will get another as blatant instance of cheating for some time, so they should have upheld their original decision and sent a message to the cheats, that it will no longer be tolerated.

 

Yes, he would have been unlucky to have been the first to have been punished for it, but it needs to be stamped out and UEFA have to start somewhere, even if it's against a player who plays for an English club.

 

Cheating will always be a part of the game, but this form of blatant cheating should be stamped out through heavy punishments of those found guilty.

 

It seems today that cheats will be allowed to prosper by UEFA!

 

Now you're just being stupid, I'm still not convinced it was a dive so complete drivel to say they won't get "another as blatant" for some time though the mere fact he was charged at all might act as some deterrent in the 16 CL matches tomorrow and Wednesday but we'll see.
