Argentina's U-20 Team Shines in L'Alcúdia Tournament
While the leaders of the AFA have not yet decided who will take charge of the Argentina national team, the country's U-20 team is competing in the L'Alcúdia tournament, where they are doing well so far. The standout player is Adolfo Gaich, who is already being called the Argentine "Lewandowski."
The towering 190 cm forward has already scored three goals in the mentioned competition and is attracting attention for his good play and effectiveness in front of the opposing goal. In 2014, he joined San Lorenzo de Almagro and has just signed a professional contract with the club until mid-2021. The 'Cyclone' team sees great potential in him.
Despite his height, the 'Tank,' as he is called in the football world, claims that his greatest strength is not aerial play.
"Aerial play is not my strong suit, despite my height. And I don't consider myself slow. I like to drop back and make contact with the ball," Adolfo Gaich stated, also mentioning that Polish striker Robert Lewandowski is his role model. "I really like Lewandowski, I identify with him," he said.
#Sub20 | Great goal by #Argentina!!! Adolfo Gaich gently taps in the third goal for the national team at 29' of the second half. #Argentina is winning 3-0 against #Venezuela. #COTIF2018
