I can't believe that Bielsa went full Bilardo in telling players to play dirty against its rivals. It isn't just unfair play, but also a bad strategy. Now everybody hates us, and several players will be suspended for months.
A European publication overrates European players. In other news, the water is wet.
It seems that the European courts have adopted the American market-first criteria.
ExpandIsn't it time to be done with those cheap spots through the Nations League? I mean, come on: Estonia get one (1) single point in eight qualifying matches, and is still in the race because they're in the easy Nations League division, whereas quite a few clearly stronger nations are out because they're in a harder Nations League division...I know this was obvious since the beginning of this system, but this is just ridiculous
It's stupid that the 12 playoffs teams are selected with results of the UNL instead of the UEFA Euro qualifiers, which were played later.
Here's a funny documentary on the Fifa Under-20 World Cup celebrations in Uruguay.
I was close to Avenida 18 de Julio in Montevideo. There was a massive traffic jam of people celebrating. Horns blasted for about 2 hours.

Cesare Casadei topscorer with 7 goals
Today we play Perú to decide the last place in group B.
Uruguay vs Brazil starts in a few minutes.
I seriously dislike using world rankings as qualifying criteria for team sports.
How can a small country like Uruguay or Chile qualify, if Argentina and Brazil get free points by getting invited to several major championships?
In my opinion, all continents (at least four) should get guaranteed spots through either a continental championship or standalone qualifier.
World championships should give not more than four spots.
And one or two extra spots for world repechage, to encourage intercontinental play for smaller teams.
Have you seen the controversy at the Uruguay vs Perú match?
Peruvians are furious.
The South American Women's Under-17 Championship is underway here in Uruguay.
I attended the Uruguay vs Chile match, here's my photos.
Massive brawl and pitch invasion in a Querétaro vs Atlas match in Mexico. 
Uruguay crushed Venezuela. Out confidence is up for the final two matches.
Uruguay didn't play very well, but Paraguay was even worse.
These folks are crazy. Having the World Cup or continental championships every year would be chaos.
The Uruguayan football association is bargaining hard to sign Gallardo as the new coach.
Uruguay's Estadio Centenario will host the Copa Libertadores final match. Thousands of Flamengo and Palmeiras fans are expected to arrive. The government asked shops to store plenty of freezing-cold beer.
However, it turns out that the next day it's the national elections for the state pension savings bank. By law, alcohol sales are banned for the weekend...
Uruguay-Argentina, the oldest international rivalry outside Britain, is tomorrow.
UEFA sold most TV rights in Latin America to DirecTV. I have cable, so can only watch one or two matches per day.
The Uruguayan Football Championship is planned to restart in early August.
There was a severe conflict between the AFA and the major clubs because of the clashing schedules.

The fully Swiss format is awful, as Heywoody says. I would prefer a 4-vs-4 cross-pool format.
But adding more matches at the group phase is a big problem too, the calendar was already too congested.
