Lost In Translation

I was listening to BBC World on the way home tonight. There was a piece about FIFA banning the playing of football internationals at high altitude, which is about as much of interest to me as my bowling scores were to you.
However, there was interest in the story in the form of this quote, from Bolivia's president, Evo Morales...
"Playing at altitude is playing at the highest level."
Yes. It is. I don't speak enough Spanish to know what he actually said, but I'm sure we know what he meant.
