While in River Plate the matches are being discounted so that Claudio Echeverri can leave for Europe, the young pearl of the Argentine team is adding matches to gain experience before taking the big leap in her career. And although she is still taking her first steps in soccer, her quality is latent as if she has been playing soccer for many years.
The Copa Libertadores has already been able to taste the talent of the young Argentine. If in the first matchday against Deportivo Táchira he already showed certain signs of this, in the second matchday against Nacional he needed little to show that he can be one of Millonario’s best players this season. Without shying away from his ability to be differential, against the Uruguayans he mustered up the courage to ask for the ball in a context that invited him to change the game.
Receiving with their backs turned, turning with the ball and accelerating the plays of a River that dominated at all times the ‘Chino’ Recoba team, which only had its greatest offensive argument in the Nigerian Ebere. The ‘Diablito’ not only pulled resources to bring his team closer to the area, he also showed that in individual terms giving him some space is a threat. This is how his team’s goal was born, facing an opponent far from the area and nailing a shot close to the post that was impossible to stop.
Martín Demichelis’s team managed to show a good version in front of their audience, however the second half gave some wings to Nacional, who had a will and can’t as the minutes went by in which they failed to test Franco Armani clearly. The short result during much of the second half, partly due to the lack of effectiveness of the Argentines, led to a tie being possible until the last minutes.
Despite this, Colidio’s entry was key to the future of what would happen before the final whistle. River’s revulsion was one of the protagonists since he stepped on the field. He looked for the goal on several occasions, he missed several of them, but just before everything ended at the Mâs Monumental on ’11’ he scored a goal that placed the Millonario at the top of the table.
