Football Gets Friendly between Australia and Argentina when player agent and neuroscience advocate Daniel Santomil comes into the picture. His aim? To create a winning mindset – think like a winner, eat like a winner, sleep like a winner and play like a winner. It’s a long way to Australia from Daniel’s home in Buenos Aires, but the joy of football can travel the 11, 600 km it takes to get here. But: how does one negotiate the cultural clashes from one country to another? And how on earth could a privileged brat from Melbourne compete with desire against a youngster from the “villas miserias” in the Argentinian capital? Can words mean different things? Physicality be misinterpreted? Or is football an international language that the dressing room makes clear?
