SAN MARTIN, Argentina (Reuters) – When Martin Guzman was doing a PhD in economics at Brown University in the United States, he and two other Argentine friends formed part of their department’s intramural soccer team and reached the tournament final.
Losing 1-0, Argentina’s now economy minister scored an equalizer but injured himself doing so, former team mate Martin Fiszbein recounted to Reuters.
“He said ‘My foot is killing me’,” Fiszbein said. “I told him he should get a substitute. He looked at me and said ‘No way. ” Guzman scored a second goal for a 2-1 win – before going to hospital where he learned he had a double fracture needing surgery.
