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

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,

Nico Paz scores for Como in 2-1 loss vs. Sassuolo

Nico Paz continued his strong run of form in Italy, scoring once again for Como, although it was not enough to avoid a 2-1 away defeat against Sassuolo in Serie A.

The Argentine midfielder, on loan from Real Madrid, found the net for the second consecutive match and is enjoying a standout season. With this latest goal, Paz has now reached 12 in the league campaign, placing him among the top scorers in Serie A. Among Argentine players, only Lautaro Martínez has scored more this season.

Paz’s goal came at the end of the first half in a decisive stretch of the match. Sassuolo had taken control with two quick goals, but the Argentine responded with a well-taken header, beating the goalkeeper and placing the ball into the top corner.

Also involved for Como was Máximo Perrone, who started the match on the bench and came on at halftime. The Argentine midfielder played the entire second half, contributing in possession as Como tried to recover from the deficit.

Despite the result, Como remain in contention for European qualification. The team currently sits in fifth place in the standings with 58 points, holding a narrow advantage over the teams behind them.
