FALCAO SPEAKS TO THE FACT HE HAS HAD 3 GOALS DENIED IN TWO GAMES

Here is a link to the A Bola article:

Quote from the magazine:

"the players prefer not to think that there are strange things in the Portuguese league."

Oh, no, you're OK, I understand what you meant. :)
Actually, it is great to have someone there in Portugal who knows what is going on. If I could I would fly there twice a year...I know someone who works in a hotel in Lisbon and is a card-carrying Benfica supporter. He knows everything...LOL...but when we were there last May he didn't say anything about any corruption...I know that Porto has been fined for match-fixing in the past. You would think they would learn from it! I knew Porto and Benfica were rivals but I thought it was somewhat 'friendly'...I know how sweet and kind Portuguese people are and I figured that was why the rivalry was not all intense like in Italy or Holland and elsewhere where ppl kill each other...:(

Coming from Colombia where fans kill players for a bad game and players kill fans who threaten them, I guess Falcao should know about this kind of stuff. He is very religious, and a very nice guy, but he is also very tough...hard as nails. :)
