    He's the twin brother of Edwards Espinal, both whom played for Atalanta BC from 1999-2004 (actually Jose left earlier in 2001). Neither ever really got much playing time though, Jose getting a total of 4 matches while Edwards got 9. From that point on they kept falling down the Italian system.

    Some vid of his brother:

    Ningun problema, in fact Cesena played a lot of seasons in the serie A during the eighties, their website says that el dominicano will play with number 82 on his back (that is the year he was born I guess, not the number of goals he has promised them)

    Heinz Barmettler Veloz has made the Zurich 18 for their match against Real Madrid. He's been out with a leg injury for quite a while and has only played in a reserves/youth match in the past two weeks, but it'd be cool if here were subbed on for the match.

    Yet another Dominican in Switzerland. His name is Cesar Ledesma Turbi and he's a 1990 with BSC Young Boys youth/reserve team. He seems to play as a winger (defensive and midfield).

    Just finished watching W Connection's match against Comunicaciones. Wow, did Jonathan Fana have a match. He had a hattrick as WC beat Comunicaciones 3-0 in Guatemala. He also could have had one or two assists on a couple of great crosses to set up good chances for his teammates, but both missed their chances.

    The only bad thing was that he cramped up real bad and I've seen this happen in just about all the CC League matches he's played. Gotta wonder if he's in the best shape he could be or maybe its just that he isn't hydrating properly.

    He's from Moca, he played already in the local LIGA MAYOR when he was only 16 and of course already scored a lot, his nickname is Juanbosito and he's faster than a bullet

    Which is great, tomando en cuenta que the MNT plays like 1 or 2 games a year

    Yeah I heard that as well. Mostly due to an injury to one of their main strikers. But I haven't really heard much else.
