The replay they showed at the ground made it look like the push from Beto was directly responsible for the handball.

It wasn't.
That was the only moment when I thought there might have been an injustice.
 




Was a penalty all day long. As soon as I saw the replay it was obvious. Like another poster has mentioned it was dark arts gone wrong. I do think we need a few players like Veltman using those kind of "tactics" now and again, but not at every available opportunity. He's been over cooking it a little bit lately.

Pedro is another one... Frequently goes down far too easily looking for fouls that simply aren't there. He's had me worried on a few occasions where it looks like he's been shot with both barrels and looking like he's going to go off injured for a few months. Then just gets up like nothings happened after the ref ignores it.
Agree with Pedro you're right, he's been going down at slightest touch sometimes claiming a foul and even the commentary team have laughed saying 'he's tripped over his laces'.

There is definitely a point where a player becomes known for their dark arts.
It happened to Murray.

There also appears to be an assumption by refs, that Mitoma goes down easily.
He rarely winsfree kicks for anything that looks slightly soft, where plenty of other prem players seem to get them every time.
