Fortunately they managed to win against Málaga, so they're not last in the league anymore. But that doesn't mean everything's sorted out. They must win some games now to get out of the relegation zone and back to where they belong. *bites nails*
(Uhm, yes, that's actually what I meant when I translated the article. What's the difference between "whore" and "bitch"? Does the expression "son of a whore" actually exist?)
I was so excited for them when I saw they had finally won a game! Now they just need stick with it.
(Er, there's quite a difference. "Bitch" literally means "female dog" but is generally used to refer to a woman who is bad-tempered or cruel. "Son of a bitch" is a rather mild insult and can even be used as an exclamation, e.g. to express astonishment. "Whore" means "woman who has sex for money" and is infinitely more insulting. Calling someone "son of a whore" is fighting words.)
I should also add that in Spain, Latin America, or Italy, cultures where mothers are revered and female chastity is at least nominally held in high regard, "son of a whore" is even more of an insult than it is in English.
(PS Last time I checked, puta meant "whore".)
