A message: Changes to Mundo Albiceleste, reduced ads, new design

1

Hello everyone,

Since the start of the new year, we have been experimenting with different ads and locations across the Mundo Albiceleste website. And if we are being completely honest, it was time for a permanent change.

We have also been hearing and reading all of your feedbacks and are happy to announce what we believe are significant changes. The number of ads on the website have been reduced (we believe significantly) and ultimately, while the ads do help in keeping up with the maintenance of the website, we still want every one to enjoy viewing and reading the content.

Mundo Albiceleste was built by Argentina fans and for Argentina fans, which is why we believe that should remain the priority and will remain the priority.

Should you have any comments or suggestions, please, do let us know in the comments below or email us at mundoalbiceleste10@gmail.com. Our aim is to continue to improve and to provide more content (which we will continue to be doing and will be introducing new sections throughout the year) than we ever have before. And to aim for quality over quantity.

As always, your feedback is strongly appreciated. Mundo Albiceleste has been around since 2006 and we would not be where we are without the Mundo Albiceleste family.

Thank you,

Giuliano Simeone and Thiago Almada score for Atlético Madrid in 5-0 win vs. Real Betis

Atlético Madrid advanced to the Copa del Rey semifinals after defeating Real Betis 5–0 away from home in the quarterfinals. The team coached by Diego Simeone overcame the side managed by Manuel Pellegrini to secure a place in the final four of the competition.

The match featured contributions from several Argentine players. Giuliano Simeone scored Atlético’s second goal of the night in the first half, finishing a move inside the box to extend the lead.

In the second half, Nahuel Molina and Thiago Almada entered the match from the bench. Almada scored Atlético’s fifth goal late in the game after following up a rebound and finishing from close range.

Julián Álvarez did not play. The forward was expected to start but was removed from the lineup shortly before kickoff due to stomach discomfort. He remained on the bench and did not take part in the match.

With this result, Atlético Madrid moved on to the Copa del Rey semifinals, with the remaining matchups set to be decided by a draw scheduled for Friday.

Maher Carrizo joins Ajax from Vélez Sarsfield

Maher Carrizo has joined Ajax from Vélez Sarsfield.

Carrizo joins Ajax on a contract keeping him at the club until June 30, 2030. Ajax announced that the 19 year old has signed a contract and joins them on a four year deal.

Marijn Beuker, the club’s Director of Football, spoke on the Ajax website about Carrizo. Here is what he had to say about the Argentine:

“Maher is a young player with enormous potential. He can be characterised as a right winger who likes to take on his opponent, cut inside and constantly create danger with dribbles, shots and crosses.

“With his character and energy, he also brings something extra to the squad. During this winter transfer window, it was our priority to strengthen the team in the short term across various positions, while continuing to build for the future.

“In the coming period, Maher will be given the space to acclimatise to the level and his new environment. He will get minutes with Ajax U23, but he will also be given opportunities with Ajax’s first team, where he can continue to develop through substitute appearances.”
