It boggles my mind how this "controversial" situation resulted in a penalty, considering the repeated offenses by Sterling, the existence of VAR, and the stage of the game/tournament (any penalty would have decided the finalist at this point). Even if it was a penalty, I still wouldn't give it to Sterling, who was diving all the time, just like the villagers didn't believe [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Boy_Who_Cried_Wolf"]The Boy Who Cried Wolf[/URL].

It's a shame, because Sterling is a very capable player and he doesn't need such antics. Regardless of how good a player is, I lose all respect for divers as soon as I see them diving. I needed to watch only this one game vs Denmark to recognize Sterling as a blatant diver. As expected, one could easily find enough evidence to remove any doubts:

IMHO, the habitual proven divers should never be given a penalty, as a penalty. I don't care if this would cause the end of their football careers. They should know better. This game is becoming a joke with all the divers around.
