Martin Jol slams Gervasio Nunez diving antics

Martin Jol criticises Gervasio Nunez for diving ahead of Fulham's Europa League match with Wisla Krakow.

Fulham manager Martin Jol has slammed the behaviour of Wisla Krakow's Gervasio Nunez ahead of Thursday's Europa League match between the two teams.

Nunez was involved in an incident in last month's meeting between Fulham and Wisla in Poland that saw Moussa Dembele receive a red card.

The Argentine striker was accused of play-acting after the match, which Wisla won 1-0, and Jol has moved to condemn diving in football.

"I would have a word with my player if he did something like that, because it's not our style," said Jol.

"You will not see behaviour like that in our team. I told everybody what I thought about it at the time, but we got reduced to 10 men and lost, so all our effort was for nothing and that was awful.

"If you raise your hands, the rules state you are probably going to get a red card, and that is what happened to Dembele. But I still feel we were hard done-by."

Fulham welcome Wisla Krakow to Craven Cottage for the return match on Thursday night.
