They learned it from the Kingpin moegoe, Joost.
Another player who is really pissing me off with his Maradona imitations is Bryan Habana. Nearly every game now he takes a dive. He did it again on Saturday and got a penalty for nothing. Somebody should just punch him in his vagina, because clearly he has no balls if that's how easy it is for him to fall down...
I have also seen Habana's soccer diving stints.
Time the players focus on the ball and action and let ref sort out the infringements
+1000000000^10000000, the ref is going to call the game as he sees it.
