Never said it wasn't a dive but I'm still grumpy about Modric getting booked. Ref's not having a particularly good game so far.

Thing is, there's no way he couldn't give the penalty after Bale left his foot there and got it sandwiched between the two players.

He didn't get caught by anything. He left his foot in, and Wojcech still missed him, or if there was contact, it was minimal.

Sure minimal. I would have been upset if it had been an Arsenal penalty.

'Winning a penalty' is just another term for diving. Bale dived.
