One of the dubious pleasures of watching world-class football is observing the way grown men and women react when tackled. (Or when they're even accused of tackling.) Sometimes, yes, there's genuine pain and shock there. But other times ... well, it seems just a tad over the top. Here, Juventus's forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic (left) is taken down by Inter Milan's Marco Materazzi, and makes sure to let the world know about it.
