When this happen in RL, those who are responsible are fined for unsportsmanlike behaviour.
Jose himself have been fined for instructing players to get "tactical yellow card" before.

In this game there is no such rules.
It isn't cheating, it is called Gamesmanship which is the darkside of Sportsmanship.

Sportsman play to prove himself superior at the field.
Gamesman play to win by whatever means that are not against the rules.
