They flop, they don't get taken off the field for injury because they would need to be subbed out. This is way beyond the norm in soccer

They do sometimes get taken off the field for treatment and are then allowed back on. It’s not automatically a substitution.

That's usually when it isn't faked

They don’t necessarily know if it’s faked at the time. Players come off the field for treatment all the time.

This is just false. And coming off the field doesn’t require a substitution.
The difference is your team can be down to 10 men for that period so you’re not likely to want to fake it and leave your team short.
