The team technically led by Leo Gutiérrez played a good game, but it was not enough to celebrate.
Second performance for the Argentine U17 National Team in the world championship of its category. Those led by Leo Gutiérrez had an impressive game, but in the end they paid dearly for their mistakes and suffered from an impressive Goodman, who shone in the final minutes. At 33 in 20 matches, they fell to 89 in 81, adding their first defeat in this tournament; after a historic victory over Italy on debut.
It is unfair to leave alone the last minutes of the game, without giving credit to the good individual tasks that the albiceleste had. The best came from the duo consisting of Felipe Minzer and Tyler Kropp. Between the two they combined to score 49 points, the best from the offensive sector. For most of the match, the defense rose to the occasion. A goal was dropped by a rival who had just crushed Turkey, and they played as equals.
New Zealand’s intensity began to complicate Argentina’s dynamics. The aerial fight has become the domain of rivals, which penalizes a few second chance points. The same thing happened with losses; which is penalized with points from the other sector. As the game improved, Goodman’s work grew rapidly. Number 12 finished with 19 points, as one of the leading scorers of the game. Argentina was left empty-handed, but with good feelings for what follows.
Continuity
The close of the regular season is on Tuesday, against the locals. The game can be seen in our country on YouTube and Dsports. Argentina has a 1-1 record, tied with the Turks. Victory secures second place in the area, an important aspect in finding a favorable match in the round of 16 on Wednesday.
