Buenos Aires

We're into an Olympic year, with Tokyo preparing to host the Games for a second time, and I can't help but feel sorry they won't be held rather closer to home...

Watching River Plate out there parading the trophy, I thought of Alfredo Di Stéfano, who I saw taste success so many times on the same pitch...

It’s true that we have had two continental finals here between teams from Madrid, but it comes nowhere close, believe me

Maybe it coincides with reading Sergio del Molino's latest book, ‘Lugares fuera de sitio’ (Out of place locations) that inspired me with today's headline.
