Lingering doubt
Why is a bicycle kick called a "chilena"???? It seemed so promising that that doubt would be answered here! Does anyone actually know?

This is supposed to be a question for soccer fans:
Bicicleta o chilena en "balón pié": a soccer football kick, with the back sprawled out, air suspended and shooting leg at 90 degrees. I`ve heard of da. |

Running a bicycle with a little effort, makes a 90 degree body shape. |

Bueno, ahora me dicen que en 1916, había un jugador de Chile que jugaba acá en Buenos Aires por un campeonato y metió un gol así...desde ahí, lo llaman "chilena"...aunque no entiendo por qué sería feminino!!!! El tema no cierra nunca! Puede ser que Armando haya acertado y es por la música.

Chilena en Fútbol
Quote:
La "Chilena" en fútbol es patear al arco estando de espaldas y dando un salto mortal para atrás que queda la cabeza para abajo y las piernas para arriba.
