Really sad. Incredible gesture from Feyenoord though.

odd, I heard them during the game(was looking away) saying Thiago was getting the full brunt of his rage but they didn't say he slapped him, and that looks less, friendly and more "i'll kill you if you don't do better" .

I was confused for a good while last night!...at half time, Brighton vs Villareal, they both changed in to their away kits, so Brighton were first half blue+white, second half yellow, and Villareal were first half yellow, second half Blue. I was 5 minutes late back to my seat, and had no idea what was going on for about 5 minutes(first time I'd seen the away kit)

Christian "Chucho" Benitez aged 27 has died

Died in a car crash in Qatar.

Remember him when he played for Birmingham.
Wasn't great in England but excellent in Mexico before his move to Qatar.

I was going to ask how he kept a straight face when saying that, but judging from the picture, he didn't

Bit of confusion regarding cause of death. Some are reporting it as a heart attack following complications of peritonitis.

I remember Christin Benitez

RIP

He was a decent player...I thought he was older than 27 though!

Cost Birmingham a lot and never really lived up to the price tag regardless of looking good! Spurs were linked with him this summer.
Rip

el_dazza · 29 Jul 2013 at 14:55

Terrible news, I do remember him but he didn't really live up to his price tag. RIP

manic111 · 29 Jul 2013 at 15:48

RIP Chucho. Always looked an impressive player to me, might have scored a lot more goals somewhere other than Birmingham.

Pighardia · 29 Jul 2013 at 15:49

I always bought him on Football manager 2010 iirc...he was always going for about 1m at the start of the first season, and you were guaranteed quite a few goals
