Alejandro Garnacho had two debuts at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami: as a starter for the Argentina National Team and for the first time in the Copa América.It can be a group of three people: one who wants to eat, one who wants to drink, and one who wants to watch TV.
Manchester United’s winger was pictured lying on the left wing in attack during the 2-0 draw against Peru in Round 3 of Group A.
Despite Lionel Messi’s absence, the national team remains the major character, and Garnacho is bitter, wants to be decisive, and cooperative in defence. He started wide in attack and had pure power with the ability to press, recover, and make short passes, such as the one he gave to Ángel Di María, but failed after a minute competition. It also appears as a download option in Giovani Lo Celso.
At nine, the Albiceleste promised to intercept a pass – this time with his head – and clean up play with the purpose of leading an attack, but Aldo Corzo allowed him to get that far, setting up one of the night’s duels.
Meanwhile, his first attempt at goal occurred in the 11th minute, when he got it from Nicolás Tagliafico, hooked it, entered the penalty area from a corner, and aimed, but it went wide. It bounced off a defender’s post.
He tried again, at 24, and picked off three guys in the box, demonstrating that his pace can provide a significant advantage, even if he still lacks confidence.
Despite coming from a lower position in the matches he played, Garnacho terrified the crowd and raised it every time he touched the ball, causing anticipation when the drive did not go through Fideo.
In the best team match, Bichito was able to recover soon before halftime after Pedro Gallese stopped Lo Celso. He tried to get the ball into the corner, and it went up a little. And, while he regretted coming so close to opening the goal, he was treated well on the bench while the stadium screens showed Lionel Messi and the crowd boom.
Lautaro Martínez scored early in the second half, putting pressure on the Argentina National Team and creating space for Peru at the other end of the field. Di María capitalised on Garnacho’s mistakes during a confused contest.
There was no time left, so the coaching staff chose to replace him with Nicolás González, position by position, in the 65th minute. He exited with his head held high, as a wave of applause recognised his achievements and encouraged him for his future in the Copa América.
In Garnacho’s maiden COPA encounter, he had 16/20 accurate passes, 4 touches in the opponent box, 1/4 successful dribbles, 1/2 tackles won, 2 clearances, 5 recoveries, and 5/10 duels won.
