River Plate win Recopa Sudamericana

Hey guys!

River Plate are champions of the RECOPA SUDAMERICANA! They have beaten Colombian giants Santa Fe.  Last nights goal scorers were Sebastián DRIUSSI and  Lucas ALARIO.  This is River Plate’s 5th international championship in only 3 years! They won the Copa Libertadores 2015, the Copa Sudamericana 2014, both Recopas Sudamericanas 2015 and 2016 and the Suruga Bank 2015, all under coach Marcelo Gallardo.  This is quite an accomplishment.

Here are the two River Plate goals from last night.  Take a look at Lucas Alario’s goal in particular.  Is this what we are missing en la Seleccion? How many goals have been scored by headers like this in our national team?
