Argentina. Since May, those who don't pay child support can't go to football

SAPO30 August 2026 at 11:00

Argentina approved a law that prohibits the entry to football stadiums to people who owe child support for minor children. The measure took effect in May 2026.

The restriction applies to all citizens registered as child support debtors with the competent authorities. They are barred from attending football matches in the country's stadiums.

The law was approved as a way to pressure debtors to fulfill their child support obligations for minor children. Access to stadiums is denied through verification of the debtors' records.

The measure covers all football stadiums in Argentina and aims to ensure that children receive the financial support they are legally entitled to.

Torrevieja Salt Lake: Looks Like a Scene from the "Barbie" Movie, But It's Very Real (and It's Right Next to Portugal)

The Salt Lake of Torrevieja, in Alicante, Spain, transforms into a vibrant pink setting during summer, particularly between August and September, due to a natural phenomenon involving Dunaliella salina microalgae and bacteria that produce carotenoids under conditions of high salinity and evaporation. The phenomenon, which has even attracted NASA's attention, is part of the Natural Park of the Lagunas de La Mata y Torrevieja, where salt pans managed by the Unión Salinera de España remain active. Visits are free along the trails and viewpoints, with guided train tours available for €12 for adults. From Portugal, there are direct flights to Alicante from €51 from Lisbon and €98 from Porto.

This opinion article from the Jornal do Algarve presents a cynical reflection on the language used in politics and sports, comparing how expressions like "strategic surprises and offensive posture," used by Iran regarding the United States, could easily be applied to football. The author notes how the discourse of footballers and politicians is frequently empty and permissive of multiple interpretations. In a second part, it addresses the issue of plastic recycling in Portugal, criticizing those who demand more recycling without confronting the practical problems of overflowing bins and collection machines at supermarkets, in a clearly ironic tone about the contradiction between demands and practices.
