By saying that Kane is initiating contact you are insinuating that he's looking for the foul - ie dive are you not?
Not at all, I am saying Kane wasn't even necessarily looking for a foul, there was way more than enough contact to bring him down, just we have difference of opinion on the cause of that contact.
That is not the same as what Bale used to do, or what Hazard or Salah does, feel or even anticipate a little bit contact and exaggerates a fall.
Those are dives, what happened here was a genuine coming together, no diving involved at all.
