2

Adolfo Gaich scored twice for Rizespor in their 2-2 draw vs. Kasimpasa and he reaches five goals in his last three matches.

Gaich is in great form in Turkey. With Kasimpasa leading 1-0, it was a cross into the penalty area which eventually found the 24 year old and he would score from close range to draw Rizespor level.

Once more, Kasimpasa would take the lead and once more it was Gaich who would score for Rizespor. A pass to Zeqiri and Rizespor were through on goal and he would pass it to Gaich and he would score his second goal of the game.

The Argentine has six goals in 17 league matches this season, nine goals in total with three of them coming in a hat trick in the Turkish Cup. He had scored two against Pendikspor in the match prior and one against Ankaragucu.

Julián Álvarez scored twice for Manchester City in the 4-0 win vs. Fluminense and achieved the FIFA Club World Cup.

Álvarez would open the score in the first minute of play by hitting the ball with his chest after a rebound off one of the posts. This goal was very similar to the one Lionel Messi scored when he chested a goal in a Club World Cup final against Estudiantes de la Plata in 2009.

The 23-year-old Argentine would convert the 4-0 for the “Cityzens” in minute 87 with a cross kick with his right foot inside the box.

He was also named the Man of the Match for the final. With this title, he reached his 14th trophy in his career and became the third player in history to win a Copa Libertadores, Copa America, World Cup, Champions League and Club World Cup.
