» schultzy - The crazy world of Argentinian Soccerball
After catching the recent Newells Old Boys - Velez Sarsfield match in the Copa Libertadores, I know full well why the Argentinian FA don't hold a cup competition - the fans are bonkers. To hold a knockout competition might prove more trouble than it's worth! Admittedly the referee was shocking, but numerous pitch invasions and running battles on the terraces resulted in 16 minues injury time.By the way, did anyone catch Lyon-St Etienne the other week? The goal celebrations were priceless. One goal was celebrated in front of the dug outs, the players spraying each other with silly string. For another, Cris was determined to chest-slam Fred into the turf. Anyone know if these can be seen on the web anywhere?
