Marcos Acuña scored for Sevilla in their 2-1 win vs. Getafe.
Acuña returned for Sevilla and scored his first goal of the season. With the score at 0-0, a free kick into the penalty area found the World Cup winner Acuña who scored a great header to give Sevilla the 1-0 lead.
Sevilla’s World Cup winners were all celebrated prior to the match as Marcos Acuña, Gonzalo Montiel and Papu Gómez were on the pitch with their World Cup medals.
Julián Álvarez scored for Manchester City in their 4-0 win vs. Chelsea for the 3rd round of the FA Cup.
The young Argentine striker asked for the ball after a handball in Chelsea’s box and went to take the penalty. Although Chelsea’s goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga tried some “Dibu” Martínez’s mental games on Julián, “the spider” managed to place the ball low next to the
right post of Kepa and scored the 2-0.
Álvarez played the entire match as City’s coach Pep Guardiola put mostly a reserve team on the field for today’s game. It was Julian’s first goal since the World Cup. He had scored his last two goals in Argentina’s semifinals 3-0 win vs. Croatia.

Lautaro Martínez scored for Inter in their 2-2 draw vs. Monza on matchday 17 of the Serie A.
Although his team couldn’t get the win after conceding the equalizing goal in the last minutes of the stoppage time, the Argentine striker was able to score and momentarily give Inter the 2-1 lead in the first half. After great individual pressing and some questional decision making from the Monza defender, he could recover the ball and shoot with nearly an open goal.
Based on the Sofascore ratings of the game, Lautaro was the best player of the match along
with Matteo Pessina of Monza, both with a 7.8 rating. On the other hand, the other Argentine at Inter, Joaquín Correa, was on the bench and didn’t get any minutes on the field in the draw.
