and whats with all the cards for the GKs timewasting...
FIFA directives seem to say that any Gk loitering on the pitch will recieve a yellow. Its totally crazy as there is no real problem in that area, the same goes for the missed tackles... I would really like to see FIFA go to town on diving and play-acting but it seems that these things are deemed lesser 'professional' fouls than those mentioned above...which to me is very strange.
