Who was Everton's No. 18 went over and tried to reef him up off the ground? Couldn't recognize him on the highlights. Reminded me of the reaction to effete foreigner Luis García's dive on the edge of the box in the Anfield derby last year, the one where he bent his shin in an attempt to make it look like Hibbert had gone over the top of the ball.
