LOCAL ‘SUPER LEAGUE.’ After all the bickering and political mayhem, it was finally decided that there would be no “Super League” this year in Argentina after all. In 1891, soccer’s rule makers decided that a goalkeeper could advance seven metres off his goal line during a penalty. OLYMPIC GOAL. Argentina won 2-1 with that goal and as Uruguay had just won the Olympic Games soccer tournament it was named an “Olympic” goal. A committee chosen by the world soccer federation (FIFA) to organize the Argentine Football Association (AFA) may be successful.
