West Brom's Paul Scharner accuses Liverpool striker Luis Suarez of diving after the two sides' match on Saturday.

West Bromwich Albion midfielder Paul Scharner has said that Luis Suarez dived to earn Liverpool a penalty in their 2-0 win at the Hawthorns on Saturday.

The Uruguayan, who has recently been accused of diving, was felled by Jerome Thomas, which allowed Charlie Adam to open the scoring.

"It was a nice dive for the penalty," said Scharner.

"He's very good at winning penalties. He's one of the best on the planet, in fact.

"I had a good view of it. If that's a penalty, then you will find 1,500 penalties are given in every match."

The comments are likely to anger Reds boss Kenny Dalglish, who has had to recently defend his striker.
