Arrest shatters Dani Alves' image as soccer's witty winner (The Washington Post)

Dani Alves has spent his first night in pre-trial jail for alleged sexual assault in Spain.

Mexican club Pumas took only hours to terminate the contract Alves signed in July, on hearing of his arrest in Spain. When a spectator hurled a banana at his feet on the sideline, he nonchalantly scooped it up, peeled it and took a bite before proceeding to take a corner kick. A consummate showman, he deployed his wit to devastating effect when he was the victim of a racist act while playing for Barcelona at Villarreal in 2014. He loved to ham it up for any television camera and joke with teammates. He played his third World Cup, the only major title to elude him, last month. I have barely started to cope, so I can’t have you (the media) tormenting me with the situation of my husband,” she wrote on Instagram.
