To best answer your question, Leo, we decided to call upon the all-knowing - if a little geeky - online oracle that is: www.informationbuilders.co.uk/ontheball/ which tells us, through the medium of graphs, statistics and suchlike, that the Italians are the biggest handful for World Cup referees. According to their figures, in the four games Italy have played, they've been guilty of 25 dives (more than any other team), four instances of referee-bullying (only Croatia are greater official tormenters), seven fake injuries and two expulsions.
