Would ballacks today be classed as diving or 'stooping'?

Diving, and it was that goal that sparked of my thread.

That's one you rarely see anymore, jumping up with the goalie, heading it out his hands as he catches it.

corners are becoming a bit like the uncontested scrum in rugby, a goalie either catches it or gets a free kick for the following reasons

he's in the wrong place and cant get to the ball so flaps about over the top of an attcker who is attacking the ball
he drops it so goes down on the deck
he starts to climb before a forward so cartwheels over him
the forward climbs first so he attempts to go up and makes out the forward is climbing

it would probably be more effective over the course of a season to play them to the outskirts of the box than anywhere near the keeper.
