Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has praised the Football Association for taking a tougher stance on players who feign injury in order to get an opponent sent off.
Under new regulations, a player who simulates an injury could be retrospectively punished with a three-match ban.
Wenger has previously called for the FA to take action against simulation.
“I’m a big, big fan of the new rule,” said Wenger.
“With all the camera angles it will be easier to punish players diving.”
According to the new rules, the player deemed guilty of feigning injury to get an opponent dismissed can only be punished if the red card is rescinded by an independent panel.
