Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino fears English soccer's obsession with over-analys of decisions and a fixation with diving could kill the sport.
Pochettino's side drew 2-2 at Luverpool on Sunday in a match marred by contentious penalty decisions by referee Jon Moss.
Tottenham was awarded two penalties which have been the source of fierce debate in the past two days, while Spurs midfielder Dele Alli was also booked for diving. Pochettino felt all three calls were correct, but Liverpool counterpart Jurgen Klopp was left furming as his side were pegged back in stoppage time when Harry Kane converted the second controversially awarded penalty.
Tottenham's impressive performance has shbsequently been over looked as the decisions of the officials are analyzed with a fine-tooth comb, and Pochettino believes paying so much attention to such issues takes away from the essence of the game.
"Soccer is a creative sport, in which you need the talent, that grows in a very intelligent person, a very smart brain," he said. "And now we are so focused on minimal details. I don't know. I am worried that in a few years (...)."
