VIDEO: Romanian legend Gheorghe Hagi was having none of his player diving in this match

More of this please

We’d love to see more of this kind of thing closer to home.

Gheorghe Hagi is not just one of the best players in Romanian football history, he also doesn’t suffer fools gladly, even if one of those fools is his own.

Viitorul player Romario Benzar went down a bit easy against Astra Giurgiu after this “challenge” and it’s safe to say that his manager wasn’t best pleased.

We love the reaction of the former Real Madrid and Barcelona playmaker here.

The poor physios, though. They were only trying to help.
