Nice Try, Dave
Video: David di Michele’s comedy dive against Liverpool
Italian hits the deck in hilarious fashion
Didier Drogba received more flak for his strong commitment to cheating this weekend, but one of the best dives of the 2008/09 Premier League campaign happened at Upton Park on Saturday.
After a rookie defensive error from Jamie Carragher, West Ham’s David di Michele was clean through on goal. At the point where he should have unleashed a shot and made it 2-1, the Italian appeared to trip himself up. Rather than try to find his footing, he then jumped in the air in the style of a Hollywood movie star leaping away from a huge explosion.
Unsurprisingly, di Michele was booked for his laughable attempt at deception.
