Sometimes honesty works against you in modern football.
If Virgil van Dijk throws himself to the floor like Gabriel did in the North London derby , the whistle probably goes. The contact gets magnified. VAR slows it down. The referee is forced into a decision. But he stays on his feet.
He tries to defend honestly. He trusts the game to reward strength, balance, and integrity. And that honesty costs Liverpool because in today’s game, staying up can make it look like nothing happened. No fall. No drama. No foul.
That’s the paradox football says it wants toughness. It says it doesn’t want players going down easily. But the reality? If you don’t go down, you don’t get the call.
So what’s the lesson players learn?
- Don’t be strong.
- Don’t be honest.
- Make sure the referee sees it.
And that’s the part that hurts because sometimes doing the right thing on your feet ends up being the wrong decision on the scoreboard.
1 RDP house cost = R150K
R20 Million can build 133 Houses
Our government chose to building a useless statue instead of building houses for people
133 houses can give a shelter to over 500 people!!! 😭😭😭😭
If this appears on your TL kindly Repost until these criminals who robbed a ehailing driver of his phone and cash during a passenger pick up in Westbury Johannesburg are found & dealt with the Law. Someone out there knows these people.
After arresting these illegal criminals…
They must also arrest the person who hired them and the person who approved the construction…
Then demolition that useless building..🤧
