“They have vice dive”, Stretcher like Bastoni? The simulation in Inter-Bodo

It all happens a few minutes before the end of the first half. Barella enters the area and collides with an opponent, falling disastrously. Even in this case however, as happened previously on an alleged hand touch from a Norwegian, the Spanish race director lets him continue making broad signs to get up. The replays actually show a suspicious contact between the leg of the Sardinian midfielder and that of the Bodo player, who slipped, and then sees it collapse on Barella.

The Sardinian midfielder, however, evidently lets himself fall and many, on the ruthless world of the web, immediately shout about the simulation, making the inevitable comparison with that of Bastoni which led to the second yellow card, and the consequent expulsion, of Pierre Kalulu in Inter-Juve. “Watch out for the sniper at San Siro“, writes a user attaching the video of Barella’s ‘flight’ on dip viceo”. And again: “He hits his foot and collapses as if he had been shot”, up to an eloquent “no Italia, no party“.
