Eduardo infamous injury
Now I will start by saying that I am unashamedly an Arsenal supporter. As is being widely reported Arsenal striker Eduardo De Silva has received a two match Champions League ban from UEFA following his dive in the qualifying game against Glasgow Celtic at The Emirites. I genuinely do believe that Eduardo went down far too easily and there should never have been a penalty. That said I do not recall Eduardo turning too the referee to look for the penalty after he went down, as we see from other players so often.
Now I am sure you are asking why this matters. Well the thing is that Eduardo has received his ban for deceiving the referee with intent. Now since he did not go for the now customary throwing of hands into the air and bemused facial expression.
There is also of course the issue that what Eduardo did at the weekend is no different to anything that other Premier League players do week in, week out. Some of them are evening applauded for it.
