So footballers are a bunch of sex & drugs addicts?


Looks like a very sick environment. Honestly it gives the sport a bad image. I would have changed the drug scenes with heavy drinking...at least.

well at least in Mexico they have the image of rockstars. they live here with little to no consequences to their actions. I could give you plenty of examples, at least here in my city Monterrey which has a lot of nightlife. There has been several players caught with DUIs even crashing while driving drunk.

One of the worst case of impunity (which happens a lot in Mexico when the perp is rich, not only soccer players). One of the key elements of the team assaulted a underaged girl (17 years old). And by assault I mean several kicks to the womans vagina, not only is an aggravated assault on a person but special circumstances like she being a woman and underaged. Makes it a cowardly act and just apalling. Why would he kick the underaged girl? well they were in a relationship of course.

So
1 count of aggravated assault
even in LA the player's leg would be considered a deadly weapon
statutory rape

In USA it would be enough for the player to be dropped by the team and be put away for many years in jail, but alas this is Mexico.

What actually happened? disgusting s**hit..the team gave him permission to flee, I mean go to Brazil as a emergency loan while the lawyers worked out a deal with the victim. Once the problem was "solved" he returned only to be sold to another team. Right away to change venue I guess.
