Santiago:
Chilean football star Arturo Vidal will not be suspended from the national team despite being arrested for crashing his Ferrari while driving drunk, coach Jorge Sampaoli said Wednesday.
"We have not decided to suspend him," Sampaoli told a press conference after the 28-year-old Juventus midfielder spent the night in jail following the crash. "I don't think it's as major as some have made it out to be."
