I don't understand FIFA at all. One one had' date=' they will hand over all these bans saying this is intolerable but they would not even touch the players who dive. In short, there are different levels of "cheaters" for FIFA - some more important than the others.[/quote'] Well I guess its more trying or intent to cause harm to someone is what FIFA main focus which are physical in nature Diving is bit a different its like trying to trick referee like in cricket people appeal when its not out or batsmen stays when he is out similar to that

The cricket equivalent of diving is claiming a catch which has been grounded. The equivalent of an appeal in cricket is an appeal in football for offside, corner etc. Let me bring in more clarity. How about cases of diving where the opposition player gets a yellow/red card? FIFA doesn't seem to pro-actively interfere in such cases.
