Máximo Perrone scored for the Argentina U20 team in their 2-1 loss vs. Paraguay at the Sudamericano.
Perrone scored Argentina’s only goal of the game in a match they were unlucky to lose. Two defensive errors by Javier Mascherano’s team allowed Paraguay the win.
With the score at 0-0, it was an effort on target by Paraguay’s Melgarejo from outside of the penalty area but the ball was mishandled by goalkeeper Gomes Gerth and it went in for Paraguay’s first goal of the match.
Argentina’s Santiago Castro played a great ball in from the left side which found Manchester City’s Máximo Perrone and he would score from close range. That match made it 1-1 with Argentina scoring minutes after Paraguay’s first goal.
Federico Gomes Gerth would make a big save before the end of half time to keep the score level. The second half would start and while Argentina would see much of the ball, it was Paraguay who would score off another defensive error.
Di Lollo would handle the ball inside the penalty area and it was a penalty for Paraguay. Dure would score the penalty and while Gomes Gerth guessed the right way, he was unable to make the save.
Coach Javier Mascherano would make substitutions in the second half with Brighton’s Facundo Buonanotte coming on for Real Madrid’s Nico Paz. They would send crosses into the penalty area but were unable to convert their chances.
Facundo Buonanotte was stretchered off for Argentina. He would jump for the ball and a hard landing on the pitch saw him down for a few minutes before the medical team stretchered him off the pitch.
Mascherano’s Argentina, who are in fourth place in the group, play Brazil on Monday.

Hellas Verona are interested in signing Adolfo Gaich of CSKA Moscow.
Adolfo Gaich could be returning and continuing his football career in Italy. According to Gianluca Di Marzio, the club are interested in signing the striker.
There have been conflicting reports regarding the his price, with media outlets reporting that CSKA Moscow are looking for a loan with an option to buy, but Verona looking for a loan with no option to buy. Per MatchTV, via a translation from Athletistic, CSKA Moscow’s club selection department, Andrei Movseyan had this to say about a possible transfer:
“We are negotiating with European clubs. The fact is that Gaich was unhappy with his playing time at CSKA, that was the main factor. In December there were proposals from Argentinian clubs, but they did not suit us financially, and after the New Year we started negotiations with European clubs. At the moment, this option suits both us and the player, there is a mutual movement towards. Everything then depends on the evolution of the negotiations, because there are always many factors. In particular, in this case, the question of replacement is relevant. Moreover, the conditions of the transition must suit not only the player, but both clubs.
“There are still some details. And for us, all the details are key.”
The 23 year old has previously played for the senior Argentina national team and has represented the team at youth level. He left San Lorenzo for CSKA Moscow in 2020 where he had two loan stints. The first loan at Benevento and the second at Huesca.
