Maravilla Martínez, appears in Racing against Tigre

The words are reiterated. The praise is repeated. There are already kids left for such demonstrations. Maravilla Martínez in Racing is the man who flies the flag of an offensive power of the Academy that crushes and crushed Tigre 4-0 on the third date of the Professional League. That he doesn’t forgive. Another goal from the Campana native, this time with an assist. Another score that brings him to 19 in his last 20 games. Once again, the great gunner that the Academy has was present. Unusually (yes, unusual at this point), Maravilla had not converted in a 3-0 victory over Argentinos. But on Friday night he returned with his sense of smell intact, with that voracious hunger. El Matador suffered it and Racing enjoyed it. Again.

The former Institute had already shown good performances by holding the ball well and unloading to the sides with great clarity. Always on the edge of the last defender to avoid offsides, he constantly moved to unmark himself, always pivoting judiciously. But 47 minutes into the first half he did what he does best… After a cross from the left by Maximiliano Salas, and a rebound from Agustín Urzi, Martínez was left on his back. The defender committed the sin of not getting on him more, Maravilla picked it up with his left foot, turned and hit the right foot for 2-1. Great resource, pure speed, without wasting time.

A while later he assisted his best partner, Salas, author of a majestic finish in front of the goalkeeper. He scored it on one side, went to look for it on the other and pushed it to make it 3-0. A celebration of goals that would be expanded later with Juanfer Quintero’s fourth, from a penalty.

Maravilla Martínez, the voracious man who does not allow himself to make a mistake in Racing, in this case against Tigre

Despite his good night, Maravilla Martínez left the field with a bad face in the ST. Did it bother you that Costas took it out? Nothing to see. He had the anger on the other hand… It arose from his goal-scoring ambition and his mentality. Prior to his goal, Tigre’s one had blocked a ball inside the six-yard box and that left him dissatisfied. “We have to learn from mistakes. Today we had more goal situations that were resolved poorly. And in another game I may have had just one and I was able to make it happen. You can’t be making mistakes or wasting opportunities We have to be forceful and try to secure every ball that hits us. If not, then you pay it and what happened to us with Belgrano happens to you: we were 4 to 1 and then they tied us,” said the scorer in conversation with TNT Sports, on the playing field.

Maravilla also demanded: “Among ourselves, the forwards have to shout at each other to wake up and try not to waste those opportunities”. Martínez returned to the duel against the Pirate that generated so much displeasure due to that incredible 4-4. “Belgrano plays, it is a team that goes out to win like us, and well, we had to tie. That has happened to other teams worldwide. It is not the death of anyone, but well, that helps us,” he minimized. the attacker. And he transmitted confidence based on what the overwhelming work of Racing in Victoria left him. “Playing this way, when the team creates enough situations,” Maravilla highlighted, “it becomes easier for us forwards. Because you have that option to make a mistake, right? Like today, when I had two before, they didn’t go in and well… . The third one was able to enter, thank God.”
