Then why didn't he just run right into the outstretched leg instead of trying to avoid it? The defender was trying to block his path anyway without playing for the ball... I don't think the pictures tell the story you are.
I know what you are saying but these days it's all about "contact" these are highly gifted players with tremendous balance, they ride those challenges outside the box. Even the pundits say "he's entitled to go down", a penalty should be for a challenge that clearly was meant to hamper a player rather than just a slight touch, Martial, Fernandez, Rashford, Mane and Salah are amongst the worst and it fucks me right off.
 
I’m Irish.
We celebrate winning the toss these days.
Yep ! and we celebrate Irish capped Grealish and Rice and the 5 or 6 other squad members, who were eligible to play for Ireland. But not as much as we celebrate Dubliner Eoin Morgan, CBE,dragging England to World Cup glory.
Yeah but you’ve got Guinness, the river dance and beautiful Irish girls, we’ve got Holts, I’m from Cheshire fuck the miserable cunts ;-)
Guinness, over rated imo , try Murphys, for a smoother cleaner taste.

Yeah, I tried to clarify in an edit. Maybe(only he knows) he wasn't knocked enough off balance to go all the way to ground and he looked for the second contact. However, I don't think the Denmark defender was going for the ball there, by leaving his leg outstretched like that(ball was already past him), so isn't that an attempt to hamper the players progress as you put it?

Players are also told to go down if they've been impeded in the box, he may well have got to that ball without that,
is the justification for it. So even if he did make a choice to go down after being put off balance, I think it's a little unfair to question his character for it. If he had been looking for the contact that sent him off balance, maybe but even then, that's what Kane, Grealish(Vardy against City... grrr) get praised for all the time,"clever" movement, to buy freekicks and penalties.

I hope all the City fans demanding City buy Grealish, know that's a big part of his game and the media will probably spin it negatively, as soon as he puts on a City shirt.
