I get where you're coming from but I'm all for being fair. I would rather have the game controlled more than have it turned into a rule breaking, cheating mess. In my opinion fouls are given way too often in the modern game anyway.

Just review fouls for penalties.
It was utterly disgusting to see PSG win a game against a weaker team because of a penalty on a dive.

There is way too much diving in the sport right now. WAY TOO MUCH. Only a diver could appreciate that.
Massive job loss will take place, but if left allowed to, the market will adapt. I just don't want my job to be taken away from me, tbh.

Reviewing shouldn't be a thing, should fine players for diving if anything. But, if reviewing was implemented the game, in all honesty, would not go nearly as smoothly and take up more and more time and I agree with Sven, it adds controversy and stuff to games..

Just review dives on penalties.
Or review dives after the matches.

JUST PLEASE TAKE MEASURES TO PREVENT DIVES FOR PENALTIES.

Why not stop the clock like in Rugby?
And how can it cause controversy? It's the diving that causes controversy...

I know, that's why I like it. And stopping the clock in football? No.

So if a team loses a cup final because of a dive then it's good?
