Arjen Robben may be a most excellent footballer, but the prematurely bald Dutchman has a habit of annoying everyone. And while he may not be bothered about winning any personality contests, on Sunday night he did himself no favours by earning a controversial penalty in injury time which ultimately won Holland their last-16 clash with Mexico.

Rubbing stroopwafel crumbs into Mexican wounds after Klaas-Jan Huntelaar’s spot kick – gained by Robben after theatrically tumbling under Rafael Márquez’s challenge – booted them out of the World Cup, the Bayern Munich winger had the temerity to admit that he dived in the match.His play-acting over the weekend was far from an isolated insident, however: the 30-year-old has a rash of simulated dives. For instance, here is another beauty of him in 2011 when in Fußball-Bundesliga action three years ago. On that occasion, in a rare small victory for the good guys, he rightfully won not a penalty for his side against Bochum but a yellow card.But where does the Holland forward rank in the all-time list of worst diving culprits in the game? We have listed eight more below, ending on the one we believe is the biggest cheat. But take the time to register your vote, as it’s important you have your say now.(telegraph.co.uk)Bakudaily.az
