How he plays
A right-back who spends half the match as a winger. He times his runs in behind and trusts the pass will come.
In Aussie and Kiwi terms
Think of the midfielder who tops the running stats every week and still chases in the last minute.
Three things to know
- His first goal for Argentina came in the 2022 World Cup quarter-final, from a no-look Lionel Messi pass.
- He started the 2022 World Cup final.
- He comes from Embalse, a lakeside town in Córdoba province.
Watch for this in his game
The overlap. When the ball goes wide on the right, watch the touchline for his run.
