The Netherlands' Arjen Robben secures the 'Golden Dive' award

Marcelo, Fred and Georgios Samaras provided competition, but there was only ever going to be one winner.

THERE WERE MOMENTS of magic and wonder goals galore over the last few weeks as the best footballers on the planet showed off their full array of skills at the World Cup in Brazil.

On the flip side, we witnessed some world-class simulation as several players looked to gain any advantage they could. With that in mind, the Irish-based Golden Dive team have put together their tongue-in-cheek awards video for the top, top dives.

It’s no real surprise to see who ended the competition at number one and the Golden Dive guys now are encouraging people to join their  ’Share to Shame’ campaign.

    10 minutes sin bin for yellow cards. That will cut down on fouling and diving and is ample punishment for offenders.

    Could work, but players might dive more to get an opposition player yellow carded and sin binned for 10 minutes

    Plus we could be in for a 10 minute snore fest if the unlucky team decide to go negative and waste time
