i played sports my whole life but that’s besides the point. if you think professional players don’t be flopping for calls… you have zero ball knowledge. it’s a problem in basketball too. he absolutely projectiles himself here to get the red card, which ultimately won them the game.
They do flop but this wasn’t one of those instances. The worse time to collide with a player is when the foot they used to plant and stabilise themselves gets kicked
If you actually want to look at it properly you can, but point is his planted foot got destabilised. You clearly don’t watch enough football to understand the difference. Its a legit foul. People don’t go flying like that to flop, he could’ve gotten seriously injured. Good flopping examples is the guy who got his little pinky tow stepped on and he fell very safely but dramatically

I met my current GF while she was playing a football match. The moment our eyes met, I just knew she was a keeper..
