Nicolás Tagliafico scored for Olympique Lyonnais in their 3-1 away victory against FCSB in the first leg of the UEFA Europa League Round of 16.
The Argentine left-back opened the scoring for the French team in the 30th minute. Tagliafico received a cross from the right side of the box, attacked the ball, and directed a powerful header across the goal into the back of the net, making it 1-0 for his team.
Argentine midfielder Thiago Almada came off the bench in the 76th minute for Lyon when the match was tied at 1-1. The French side went on to score two more goals, securing a strong advantage ahead of the second leg at home.
Tagliafico is already is already pushing 33, but still in good form. I was hoping that his understudies would be Bernabei, Soler or Barco, but Ortega it is for now.
Probably he will still be our starting left back next year’s world Cup
