The millionaire coach, Martín Demichelis, booked the Kid for the home stretch of the match against the xeneizes. The bet paid off, as the former Colo Colo striker ended up making a shock. They committed the penalty that gave the victory to the blood band team.
Pablo Solari entered the second half of the Superclásico between River Plate and Boca Juniors. The arrival of Martín Demichelis on the bench diminished his importance in the team of millionaires, unlike what happened during the stage of Marcelo Gallardo. The former defender gives him another use: he sees him more as a boost when he takes advantage of the fatigue of rival defences. In the duel against the xeneizes, the Kid, member of a family full of fans of the blood band team, answered in spades.
It took half an hour for the former Colo Colo striker, considering regular time, to stand out and be showered with applause. Just 60 minutes into the game, he received the signal from the former Bayern Munich defender to jump onto the pitch, instead of the reprimanded Rodrigo Aliendro. He answered her, certainly, at a high level. Ever since he stepped onto the playing field, he has stood out. A shot on a stick, just five minutes after entering the field, was the warning that he was going to live an important day. He had received from Ignacio Fernández and his shot, which deflected on the way, almost surprised Romero . The left vertical refused him the celebration. He had another approach, but failed to execute the cross.

At the end of the match, he achieved the greatest notoriety: he participated in the most important game of the duel The one that ended up giving them the victory against the team of Jorge Almirón: he was overthrown by Agustín Sández in the area . The Colombian Miguel Borja defined from the twelve steps. Madness broke out in the Monumental. Literally.
The Argentine press did not hesitate to praise the former white striker. “He had the winning goal at his feet within minutes of entering. He defined well, crossed, but his shot hit the post and crossed the line. In the end, he generated the winning penalty. It was the key to winning the Superclásico “Summarizes the trans-Andean version of the ESPN site. The praise resulted in an outstanding rating: a seven. This rating put him on par with the best players in the engagement.
The most eloquent, in any case, was Clarín. “Decisive. Determining. That’s why he was the face of the party . Minutes after entering, he nearly converted with a definition that hit In the stick (after deflection to Valentini) and they committed the penalty with which River beat Boca after Borja converted it”, he summarized.
Something nastier, but equally favorable, was the track record of sports newspaper Olé, which gave him a six as a rating for his performance. “He generated the decisive penalty for Sández. Forehand to the right post in the first intervention. He played 30 minutes for Aliendro and positioned himself as a right winger. More aggressiveness and acceleration “, commented the publication in connection with the background. Later, he gave the reason which, as if he was a student, ended up lowering his average: “Imprecise in the centers ”.
On social networks, moreover, the assessment was even more intense. In this space, when it comes to the Kid, several factors come together. The first, the performance in the service game, which in this case is the transcendent victory of the Núñez team over the blues and yellows. The second, in the Chilean case, the eternal gratitude that Colo Colo supporters profess to him for having prevented the relegation of the popular team.
