>>157169522what match is he talking about here?
>>157169731England vs Brazil 2002They were happy to mix Rivaldo’s brilliance with his “addiction to blatant fakery,” which meant they had “all but abandoned the inheritance of ‘jogo bonito’” (Pelé’s idea of the beautiful game).This Brazil bore little resemblance to the great teams of the past. He described them as more physical,dirty, result-oriented, and cynical under coach Luiz Felipe Scolari (who had even criticised China for not fouling enough).He portrayed the side as commercialised “Harlem Globetrotters of football without the laughs,” constantly playing for money and sponsors, with a chaotic domestic scene full of fouls and corruption rumours.He suggested they were treated as FIFA’s favourites (linked to the light fine Rivaldo received for the Turkey dive and whispers about referee selection if they reached the final).

The Boys of Summer? No, the Guys of Fall" – The New York Times (June 16, 2002)The article is a critical commentary on the diving (simulation/play-acting), refereeing controversies, and unsportsmanlike behavior seen during the 2002 World Cup. It uses Brazil’s match against Turkey as the main example. Key points:Main incident: South Korean referee Kim Young Joo made two highly controversial calls that helped Brazil win 2-1 against Turkey. He awarded a dubious penalty to Brazil’s Luizão (the foul appeared to happen outside the box, and Luizão had dragged the Turkish defender). This led to a red card for Turkey’s Alpay Ozalan and the winning goal from the spot. In the dying minutes, after a corner, Turkey’s Hakan Unsal kicked the ball at Rivaldo in frustration. The ball hit Rivaldo’s leg/knee, but he dramatically collapsed, clutching his face as if he had been hit in the head “like he was having a brain hemorrhage.” The referee sent Unsal off with a second yellow card. TV replays clearly showed the ball never touched his face. nytimes.comCriticism of simulation: The piece highlights how top players are experts at faking fouls to win penalties and get opponents sent off. Rivaldo later admitted using his “experience,” saying “in soccer, you have to be sly.” The article notes that dramatic falls and writhing in fake agony were becoming common in the tournament, not just among Brazilians.FIFA’s response: Rivaldo was fined $6,300 (described as pocket change for him) for simulation, but he was not suspended. FIFA also dropped its experiment of showing video replays on stadium screens.Broader context: The author portrays the 2002 World Cup as plagued by poor refereeing and players conning officials. While not exclusive to Brazil, the Turkey game is presented as a prime example of how gamesmanship and referee mistakes can decide important matches.
