Cue the excuses why he's better than Ronaldo, even though he dives easily as much, if not more

If the ball is on the ground, the attacker gets a touch and the defender only makes contact with the attacker, you'd call that a penalty.
The same rules apply when the ball is in the air.
If you say that challenge is fair, then why try to play the ball? Just bundle over the attacker while the attacker is heading the ball.
And to say it's a dive is just plain wrong. I encourage anyone to ask a co-worker to shove them in the back when they are running at full speed and jumping in the air. If that causes you to fall over - DIVE!!!
For the record, Boro supporter here with no great love of the Scousers.

I wouldn't call it a "phantom" penalty, there was obvious contact, but I didn't think Gerrard had control of the ball when they collided. It looked like a 50/50 ball, and both players went for it. The penalty was very harsh.

Ronaldo does a swan dive everytime a defender breathes on him, week in and week out.To compare the two players is not just one big fat joke and such an obvious and typical remark by a United supporter.
