The German striker arrived in England with a reputation for going down easily, and not just when celebrating a goal. Whenever he hit the net for Spurs, Klinsmann would throw himself to the ground in a diving motion to mock those who called him a cheat. But the forward was never too far away from a bit of diving-related controversy. When West Germany played Argentina in the 1990 World Cup final in Italy Klinsmann used his skills to give his side the edge, en route to their 1-0 victory. As he was fouled by Pedro Monzon, Klinsmann hurled himself into the air before rolling around more times than a rolling pin on a bit of dough. The defender was red carded and Germany went on to win their latest World Cup.
