How is it whataboutism? Its an identical incident

 

Whataboutism is there to deflect attention away from an incident with something essentially unrelated

 

"What about this incident in the Finland - Denmark match? They cheat, we can also cheat."

Very impressive to have made the final with only conceding one goal to a direct freekick. 

 

For a few minutes following that goal it felt like he was about to completely fuck everything up :lol: His mental state is so fragile under pressure.

No the point is that they cant complain unless they said it was wrong that their player dived too. 

 

Id imagine if you go back to the Denmark/Finalnd game thread the majority on here will have said it wasnt a pen.

 

If Denmark accept the decision given to them they have to accept the decision given against them

It is though, its not whataboutism to point to historical data to back up your position. 

 

He literally is pointing to the Danes doing it so that's why people shouldn't bother about the English doing it. Literal whataboutism.

Love how triggered all the England haters are getting. Would take a late dive pen in the final too please.

 

Everybody's hero scores an own goal and England win because of a dodgy pen.

 

The tears are delicious.

Man, they're not hating on England as everyone agrees they were the better team and deserved to win. People always lament diving in football man. If ths was two other teams you'd be saying the same as what they are. It's just what it is.

 

It's great to see England make a final. I really fear some of you are seriously tempting fate with your takes though :lol:

 

Would you still take a late dive pen in the final if it's for Italy?  Can already see Immobile on the floor holding his face :lol:
