Well they don't say charged for diving so I don't think a definition of that is needed. They say he is charged for "Successful Deception of a Match Official" which considering he goes to ground under what looks like barely any contact seems to be bang on.

Although it is very difficult to be 100% sure on any cases apart from the diving with no contact.
Isn't it down to referees to call these accurately in the moment though? Isn't that what they're trained for??

Taking retrospective action because a referee felt that they were 'tricked' by a player in a moment is farcical. It completely shifts accountability away from them when they're already protected by the FA enough.

What's next? are players going to be punished for scoring goals when they were clearly offside just because the officials didn't catch it at the time? would you class that as 'deceiving' the officials by playing on??
 

Tbf though, Niasse being banned will not be great news for Palace as we have Hammers coming up. They'd want us to beat them right?
 
Come on lads don’t morph into simulation technical body language experts now. It’s clear he’s snided the defender for a penno.
Yeah, but if the Ref was half decent he'd have seen it and given him a yellow card.
The ref didn't see it so he'll more then likely end up with a two match ban because the Ref was incompetent.

I know the answer is "Because we're Everton Lad", but why do we have to pay the price for incompetent officials?
Surely the Ref should get the two match ban instead for missing it?
