2011-2012 Bundesliga Match Day 30 - Borussia Dortmund v FC Bayern München [R]

I don't know, two wrongs don't make a right and Robben didn't dive in that instance. If I saw Badstuber doing this to Ronaldo after he missed a penalty, I'd be pretty embarassed. But who knows, I might be caught up in the heat of the moment and applaud that sort of behavior. Still, forgetting the fact that it was classless, Subotic looked like a dumbass while doing it.

If it looks like Robben tripped himself, it is likely Subotic saw that and was of the same opinion. And it's not like Flopery didn't try to "stop-drop-and-roll" twice inside of 45 seconds around the 65th. And it's not like Robben isn't known as the biggest diving cvnt in the BL. So, yeah, I can see why Subotic was in his face. Don't agree with it and I think it cheapens him and his efforts on the night, but I can see why he would have done what he did.

I think it was a penalty...somewhat weak......and Weidenfeller had no business diving for that ball in that situation...
knowing Robben's rep...not surprised that Neven went after Robben after the miss...I would have done the same thing...in the heat of the game...certainly it was not a right thing to do
karma almost bit Neven in the ass when he almost made an own goal minutes later
but it just wasnt meant to be...

FR, As Gary and Keith said, I don't think Subotic is generally classless, but I think he went at Robben for believeing it was karma; "You dove and yet you missed you cheating bastard"- I don't condone it but I can't say I don't get it either.

Good to have you back, Loewenboy.

Yeah, it's kind of funny, both him and Boateng throw temper tantrums regularly.

LOL at least he has some balls to make to motivate his team, unlike captain Lahm who has the captain's armband for being the nicest boy scout for 7-8 years. Badstuber is already a better leader than Lahm has ever been for example, I don't mind when he screams at our team because most of the time it's deserved.

But anyways Dortmund won the title tonight, hopefully Bayern comes back in a few weeks and wins the Pokal at least. Beyond humiliation at this point to be loosing 4 games in a row to the same team. A bit luck needed at some situations but nonetheless this is still pure humiliation.

As for Subotic, I hate it but that's football. I don't like him now, but I would love it if Badstuber for example did it to Ronaldo if it won us the tie vs Madrid. Even without diving, it's part of the game. Hate if it happens to you, love it when it happens to others type of deal.

Highlight of the match was Subotic getting in Robbens face...Robben is a diving a-hole, always has been

what Subotic did wasn't ok no matter if Robben dived or not but like EQ said that's football and it was in the heat of the moment so nobody can judge him i remember Kahn getting over Shevchenko when he missed the penalty but few minutes later Shevchenko still scored . By the way i think that was a penalty i dunno why Weidenfeler went so careless every good player will get you a penalty in that situation. Even Grosskreutz dived trying to milk it and get a penalty when Boateng started yelling at him

Not a single card was issued during this match!

Congrats on the WIN over the arrogant Bavarian's today, its great to see the other "BORUSSIA" beat them in the same season as well.I don't think they can pull it off against "Madrid"either

Feel so happy for the Dortmund fans here, you guys deserve this. This team can achieve sooo much as long as it stays together for awhile.

One fortunate goal, but it brought one giant leap to the title. Imagine, Dortmund winning the Bundesliga two years in a row. Who would have thought this could happen about 20 months ago?

Congratulations on the win, enjoy the good times because as we all know, they don't last forever.

I think Robben went down rather easily. I think there was contact and he milked it.

If a BVB player did it, most BVB fans would call him "clever."

I don't blame Subotic. I don't condone what he did, but I don't blame him either.

But let's not be hypocritical toward Robben. Other than myself and Cris, I don't see too many other BVB fans calling out BVB players when they "flop", "dive", "bitch at referees", etc.

That's what I've been trying to tell people over on Facebook.

Especially if you're doing it "on the cheap."

You see Germans are not Spaniards, Portuguese or Brazilians

dat Hölzenbein...

Congrats on the win, good job!

Subotic: "What I shouted at Robben"

You were on target.

Why Subotic felt Robben made a meal of things...

I don't think Subotic would have done that to anyone except Robben. We all know his track record of flopping in the box when anyone gets within a 10 foot radius. Yes there was some contact and Weidenfeller had no business diving, but it was a cheap fall that nearly determined the outcome of the most important BuLi match of the season.

And the play at the end when Subotic came within inches of an own goal and (guess who) Robben biffed the sitter. Makes you wonder if the football gods were pulling the strings.

It was a dive alright....

Not that it condones subotic's behaviour.

A couple LOLs going around. The most popular coming from the "peanut gallery" is, "Well, why aren't you guys in the CL semis like we are?"

No, it doesn't, but I can see why he was so pissed off.

When desperate to save face, my kids reach for excuses too.

And that CL run is going to end soon too. Oddly enough, in the last 15 years Bayern and BVB have won the CL the same number of times.

And then what? "Well at least we are in the DFB Pokal and you are not"?
