I enjoyed seeing Fred and Mawaga having great footwork, but not knowing the significance of who was covering them at the time. I guess I have some homework to do. I haven’t seen much of that footwork in a regular game by them, only a glimpse here or there. Hope to see more of that footwork in games to come. It was art.

Rivas is no longer with the club, according to Union spokeswoman Cristina Maillo-Belda. She declined comment on questions about him (age, position, nationality, last club). More on this later today when time allows. (I’m on deadline for a magazine story, so no time till tonight at earliest.)

Pity the Union isn’t more forthright with information. I understand them wanting to keep their cards close to their chest but this is a little ridiculous.

I agree with Ed there was no way that the trialist Rivas was 33 if he was that man hasn’t aged since high school.

I don't think the Martin Rivas you linked to is the Martin Rivas who played last night. Yours is 33 years old (Here's a picture of him from Inter's website, where he made only three appearances before being loaned out for two years.) and it looks like he hasn't been with a club in three years. He's listed as a defender and I thought last night's Rivas was playing up forward with Stahl being the only defensive substitution. The guy who played last night looked like he was 13.
