Martin Skrtel leads raucous plane party – flight attendants suitably unimpressed

James Rodriguez insists on signing pitch invaders shirt as security men swarm
This is becoming a bit of a trend. A couple of weeks back Ronaldinho signed a pitch invaders shirt during a game for his new side Querétaro in the Mexican League. Last night, during Colombia’s 1-0 win over Canada another opportunistic pitch invader ran onto the field to get his shirt signed by James Rodriguez. Rodriguez was only too happy to oblige the young fan, even fending off security men to scribble his signature on the fans shirt just before he was subbed.
Seems Rodriguez can do no wrong currently, and is sure to endear himself with fans even more so after this latest stunt. He even got the winner, a quickly taken free kick from 25 yards out!
