Yeah, I think I read somewhere that Maradona used to cover around 8 miles a game which is crazy given the stopping and starting + constant directional changes. You got to start worrying if the keeper starts doing 6 miles in a game 😉 Maybe Higuita would!!

Nah, nah, nah...

The truth of the matter is that most of the people in the football watching world are going to wake up on Monday 10th of July and slowly realise that it wasn't a bad dream, and in fact ...
