He made the most of it, but it was naive defending against a player every defender knows about. Ironically it cancelled out Arsenals second goal that should have been disallowed for handball. Let's say the score was 1-1!

I dont think that it was a penalty and not a dive but by changing direction it is obvious that he is going to go over so the refs should be aware of this ploy. He does it so often and is expert at it and will do the same againt us with either Bruno Kayal or Stephens being the fall guy.

definite dive, he practically jumps over the opponents leg. defender probably would have caught him though, so bit daft to put himself in that position.

Clear dive, bloody Hell.
From that little clip it also looks as if Xhaka's left foot gets the ball. Did it, or is this an optical illusion?
Whatever...blatant cheating. Did any of the TV pundits call him out for it?

Let's hope he gets a retrospective ban for that double pike with twist

He dived a good yard before any contact was made. Once a cheat always a cheat
