Hernan BARCOS: “With BAUZA, it’s clear that the door is open”

Hernan BARCOS spoke about Lionel MESSI and the Argentina National Team.

Hernan BARCOS, who played 4 matches with Argentina under Alejandro SABELLA, commented on Lionel MESSI and how if he was playing next to him, he would score 50 goals a year. Here’s what the Velez man had to say:

“He does tremendous things. He’s incredible. With MESSI next to me, I’d score 50 goals a year.”

“With BAUZA, it’s clear that the door is open, it’s a different picture because he gives the chance for everyone. It fills me with more enthusiasm and excitement.”

About how this would be a different experience to his first time with the team:
“Obviously it would be different and a new experience. When I was called-up, it was a surprise because I wasn’t expecting it. When you’re on the team, you never want to leave.”

Match Highlights: HIGUAIN double, Angel CORREA, OTAMENDI, more

Gonzalo HIGUAIN and Angel CORREA were the two Argentine goalscorers in Europe on Saturday.

Gonzalo HIGUAIN is living up to his price tag for Juventus as he scored twice in their 3-1 win against Sassuolo. Paulo DYBALA had an assist on the first goal while the second was a volley from inside the area.

Angel CORREA got off the mark for the season in Atletico’s 4-0 dismantling of Celta.

Nicolas OTAMENDI had a monster performance for Manchester City in their 2-1 win of the Manchester derby. Pablo ZABALETA came on for the last few minutes of the match. Manchester City coach Pep GUARDIOLA praised OTAMENDI after the match saying:

“People see Otamendi and think he’s just a character in the air heading but today he gave a lesson with the ball.”

Erik LAMELA came on as a substitute and played 35 minutes for Tottenham in their 4-0 win against Stoke City.

Pablo PIATTI and Lisandro LOPEZ (of Benfica) scored for their clubs.

Pablo PIATTI’s scored a great goal for his new club Espanyol in their 1-1 draw against Geronimo RULLI’s Real Sociedad. A thunderous strike from outside the area by PIATTI was enough to beat the young goalkeeper.

Lisandro LOPEZ (the defender, not the veteran at Racing Club) scored his first of the season for Benfica in their 2-1 win against Arouca. A great header from close range was the winner for his club.
