Former Coventry City striker Kevin Kyle has admitted that he would dive in order to win a vital match.
There has been much furore over David N'gog's winning of a penalty for Liverpool against Birmingham on Monday night but the Scot whose time at Coventry City is best consigned to the history books has said that he would do the same.
Speaking to the BBC, Kyle said: "Of course I would. If I'm perfectly honest, I don't know how to dive. "You'll get slaughtered for doing it, but the only thing that matters is your team getting a victory.
"I'm just not that kind of person but if it meant my team could get an advantage or a penalty, I would probably take the opportunity.
"At the end of the day, you just want your team to win. To win at any cost, you take every opportunity available to you."
