Fun fact: According to IMDb, Cristo Fernández (plays Dani Rojas) actually started his professional life on the pitch before changing careers.

How much do we know about which actors actually made soccer moves in the show - versus having stunt doubles?

(I hope “Actor Fluff” is the right tag for this.)

    I can’t remember where it saw it, but it was after season one can’t out. As part of being cast for the roles, I think they made sure that each of the players had to be able to demonstrate a certain level of soccer (football) skill because they didn’t want to have to bring in extra players for a lot of the bigger sports shots.

      I listened to a podcast with one of the background actors, who said it was the weirdest audition he had ever been to, because it was just several hours of playing football.
