Anderlecht are surprised and suddenly see a reborn strong holder | Football24

If there is one thing that club trainers hate, it is international matches. Because that’s when they see their players leave. Although it also has its advantages.

Like now with Sergio Gomez. He was in a lesser period at Anderlecht, to the extent that his statistics have taken a serious dive since New Years and he no longer showed himself to be the stronghold of the past. But how different he presented himself to Young Spain on Saturday.

He helped the Spanish reserves with a goal and two assists to a big 8-0 win in the European Championship qualifier against Lithuania. And it took him barely an hour for that, because then he was replaced. Gomez plays as a winger, a role that clearly suits him perfectly.

Gomez’s statistics at Young Spain are also great: five goals and six assists in eight games. At Anderlecht they now hope that he can continue that line with them. Because his last (and only) decisive action after the winter break is an assist in the cup match against Eupen.
