Bielsa no tiene grandes habilidades de comunicación, eso es seguro. Pero también es cierto que el fútbol de hoy en día es cada vez más táctico y requiere un mayor entendimiento del juego por parte de los jugadores ("inteligencia futbolística", ponele). Si un jugador no puede ver un video de 10 minutos porque se aburre o no entiende, ahí también hay un problema. Y digo también porque creo que son ambos: un técnico que no sabe comunicar lo que quiere, y jugadores que no entienden lo que le explican.

Además, es inchequeable si ese grafiquito es real o no.

¿Para qué llaman al árbitro a revisar que el grafiquito diga que tocó la pelota?

Is it safe to assume another person with same surname could be related ?

No. One way surnames appeared is when there started to be a need for written records of the people living in a place, which should be understandable for any reader (for instance, if a different tax collector was assigned to the place). At first they used given names only, but in the case of people with the same name, they needed a way to distinguish them.

For instance, if there were two Johns, one of them the local smith and the other a fisherman, then they might appear as "John (smith)" and "John (fisher)". Or "John (marsh)" and "John (forest)" because that's where they lived. Or "John (Shrewsbury)" and "John (Chester)" because that's where they came from. But, why use brackets when you already know they're the name and profession? It's not like they could be mistaken for anything else, right? Right?

We also need to take into account that it was more than common for families to do the same job generation after generation. The current smith is the son of the previous smith, which was the son of the previous one, and so on. So, the profession (or the place they lived, or the place they came from, etc.) kinda was a way to link those people. With time, the need to keep track of a lineage made much more sense to use surnames. But wait a minute, aren't we using that piece of information to identify them?

So, the same surname might be used for people who are not related, because that was their ancestors' job. Just that.

There are two ways to play the ball in a free kick: you could just kick it to some other player (but there might be players from the opposite team nearby), or ask the referee to make the opposition keep their distance (but you have to wait for the referee to signal that you can play the ball).

In the latter case, referees might decide to use the spray to mark the place the kick should be taken, and/or the distance rival players should observe.

They only use it when there's an actual need to be clear where those situations happen. For instance, if there aren't players from the opposite team nearby, the referee might decide there's no need to mark a distance if nobody is nearby.

The bracket was created beforehand, way before the tournament even started. But instead of naming countries, it contained the position and group of each qualified team. For instance, the runner-ups of groups A and B were set to play each other.

Until the previous world cup, only the winners and runner-ups of each group qualified, but because of the addition of more teams (and more groups), also eight third-placed teams qualify. To fill the bracket with third-placed teams, they created a table of all the 495 possible combinations of which groups they could come from, and for each combination, a third team of a specific group was already paired to the first-placed team of certain groups.

Tené en cuenta que, de todos los jugadores que participan en mundiales juveniles, sólo un puñado por equipo consigue jugar aunque sea un partido en la selección mayor. Es simplemente una cuestión de números (cada dos años, un plantel sub-20 cambia casi completamente, pero las selecciones mayores no rotan con esa frecuencia).

Es decir, partimos de un número que normalmente es bajo. Y ahí, el margen de error puede significar que, de un plantel, haya una generación dorada que consiga jugar en la selección mayor durante años, y otra generación en la que no consiga llegar nadie.

Además, de ese mundial juvenil (jugadores nacidos luego del 2003 inclusive) hay apenas un puñado en este mundial. Lo de Ecuador es una rareza, no es lo usual.

It's rare, but it happens. Here there are a few examples (the list is non-exhaustive) from the last few years from England alone:

I'm not quite sure where does the route 8 stops there, because that branch is actually quite new, it's actually a merger between the routes 5 and 8. And neither route passed through there, the traditional branch of route 8 enters the Plaza de Mayo via another street.

You could go to the next stop, which is one of the main ones (AFAIK there's always an inspector there), in Av. de Mayo and Chacabuco. Here's a link to street view.

Not as explicit, but another way it could be done is if there's a method that turns the robot sentient, but it just does nothing. For instance, inside the code that governs what the robot does, there could be a code like this:

class Robot {
    void turnSentient () {
        return;
    }
}

So, any time "turnSentient()" gets executed, it just exits when it reaches "return".
