Depending on whom you believe, David Beckham is either set to make a dent on the Paris-St.
Germain payroll or is still very much a free agent.
Despite front-page reports in France that Beckham has signed an 18-month deal with PSG, people
in his camp have strongly denied that a deal has been completed.
11.11.2011 - Si a diez meses de haber asumido (como DT de la selección chilena), Claudio
Borghi no terminó de combatir la sombra (comparativa) de Marcelo Bielsa (y sus "viudas"), el
estallido en la Roja lo volvió a foja cero.
El complejo Pinto Durán (rebautizado como
"Tinto Durán") es un polvorín desde que el
Bichi decidió separar del plantel a Arturo Vidal, Jean Beausejour, Carlos Carmona, Jorge Valdivia
y Gonzalo Jara por llegar 45 minutos tarde a los entrenamientos en un estado "indefendible".
There are or were, in a few cases -certain possibilities when it comes to international and the
misbehavior of its participants: Gabriel Tamas might get drunk, Adrian Mutu might hit someone,
Zlatan might care, the Czech national team may be found in the general vicinity of ladies of the
night and someone somewhere in South America is going to get suspended for a party.
08.10.2011 - "Debe haber mucha gente contenta en Chile porque
hemos perdido, el ataque fue gratuito en todo sentido", lanzó Borghi en conferencia de prensa,
apenas terminado el partido
Argentina 4 Chile 1.
"El plantel está golpeado, yo creo que hoy no jugamos solo contra
Argentina, tuvimos en contra a muchos medios que nos atacaron bastante, nos atacaron hoy y durante
el partido.
Second-half substitute Cesc Fabregas scored twice as reigning European and FIFA World Cup™
champions Spain fought back from a two-goal deficit to beat Chile 3-2 in an international
friendly.
Vicente Del Bosque's side were punished for a slow start as Chile raced into a 2-0 lead thanks
to goals from Mauricio Isla and Eduardo Vargas, but the introduction of Andres Iniesta at half-time
reinvigorated the Spanish midfield.

In which Chile midfielder Jorge Valdivia takes out Uruguay's Alvaro Gonzalez's quickly and
efficiently by punting a free-kick directly into his dangly bits with dead-eye accuracy...
The kind of sickening, dull thud that only chaps can truly understand the eye-watering
gravity of.

Football has always had its share of characters. South American football produces them
regularly. Many of these players have graced past editions of the Copa América. Here are some of
the players who will make the competition interesting from a non-football perspective this
summer.
For someone who is decidedly not a Santo Andre fan, this is purely awesome.
For someone who is a Santo Andre fan...probably awesome, but not purely, as they lost.
Jorge Valdivia, who is pure flair as it is, decided to up his dosage a bit with some
showboating. And he got his on the back end via a flying Anderson, whose intent and timing was none
too subtle.
