Todo Mal: Diego Lainez Se Perdió Un Gol Solo E Hizo Un Berrinche Al Ser Reemplazado

Pocas son las veces en que Manuel Pellegrini decide darle la titularidad a Diego Lainez, pero hoy fue una de esas oportunidades.

After a decade-plus of domination by Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, fans expected Ballon d'Or voting to bring some different results in 2021.
