El debut de Veljko Paunović en la banca de Chivas terminó con una sonrisa de oreja a oreja y tres puntos en el bolsillo.

Brazil and Paris Saint-Germain superstar Neymar has many haters for one simple reason: he dives a lot. Those haters had their prayers answered on Wednesday during PSG’s 2-1 victory vs. Strasbourg when Neymar was red carded for diving.
OK, so technically it was a second yellow card, but either way the referee sent Neymar off for simulation.
His two yellow card offenses happened in less than two minutes during the second half. The first yellow card in the 61st minute was for him accidentally catching an opponent’s face with his hand. Then 85 seconds later Neymar did this.
