tantos en 26 encuentros, lo que redondeó un promedio de 4,12 goles por partido, el más alto en la
historia de la Copa.

Inter Milan's attacking midfielder Phillippe Coutinho has emerged as a summer transfer target for
Liverpool according to insidefutbol.com.
The highly rated Samba star has fallen down the pecking order at the San Siro, since the arrival of
current coach Leonardo, who replaced former Anfield boss Rafael Benitez at the helm of the Serie A
club.
ADO Den Haag goalkeeper Gino Coutinho received a six-month conditional jail sentence and community
service from a Dutch court in Lelystad for a series of offences including growing cannabis, the
Dutch club said.
Liverpool are being linked with a summer move for Inter Milan starlet Philippe Coutinho.
The Brazilian teenager, who officially signed at the San Siro in 2008 before spending two seasons
on loan at former club Vasco da Gama, has reportedly fallen out of favour with manager Leonardo and
is considering a switch away from the club.
Many dream of life a professional athlete and all the perks it offers. Money, fame and success,
if the perception, and though not all make Beckham money, even those on the fringes often live a
very comfortable life.
Not sure how many people dream of running a pot farm (some, surely). Or would choose to arguably
give up the former career for a life of drug dealing and a bevy of "don't drop the soap" jokes.
What with Ashley Cole's air rifle and Joey Barton's many moments of questionable conduct – the
most recent being his claim to be England's best midfielder – this has been another season of woe
for the reputation of Premier League footballers. But as the campaign edges to its close they can
all breath a sign of relief, for it transpires that there is a player in Holland who tops the lot
when it comes to accusations of bad behaviour.
