It is forbidden not to get excited. It is that the Argentina Sub 23 Team has more than important names, both from Argentine football and from abroad and in the first test thinking about the Paris Olympic Games was more than up to par and beat Paraguay, which had just won the Pre-Olympic. And that did not include the world champions who will join as adults!
From the idea, the team Javier Mascherano He won it from the start. The thing is that he went out to play in the rival field, pressing high to try to cut off the rival’s playing circuit. And he did it… With a firm defense, a very good double five formed by Medina and Varelaplus the driving of the Diablito Echeverrithe tandem on the left of Zenón – Esquivel and the forcefulness of Beltran.
Echeverri warned first, who put together a great play but his shot went just wide. However, a little while later, Zenón took the ball outside the area and took a tremendous left foot shot to hit the ball into the corner.. Paraguay had no reaction and on top of that Argentina struck again before the end of the first half: first Beltrán pushed a center from Esquivel and then, Again the former River repeated the movement after an assist from Solari. He could have increased the lead, but Lomónaco missed the goal when he was facing the goal.
Argentina controlled the game at all times, but if something else was missing to confirm the win, it was for the fourth to arrive. At the beginning of the complement the one that appeared was Pablo Solari, who hooked, settled in and finished very well with his left foot to increase the advantage.
The Little Chief’s team left a very good image on this path that started towards the Olympic Games, even The difference could have been greater against Paraguay, because Santi Castro jumped off the bench and had two very clear chances to score on the scoreboard, but he failed. Now there will be another test with the Guaraníes (on Monday in Lanús) while Efforts continue to see if, in addition to Otamendi, Julián, Enzo and Dibu can be present in Paris.
