Last night, our new boy scored a pretty fine goal for his country against Venezuela in a convincing 4-1 win, in a South American World Cup qualifier.
The goal wasn’t an isolated highpoint, as Rodrigo put in a convincing 75minute shift. Looking at total successful actions, the 24-year-old made just 14 missteps.
The Uruguayan’s passing accuracy hit 95%c which is just where we want to see it.
Bentancur also won 73% of his duels, which is more than respectable.
The player who came through the youth system of Argentina’s Boca Juniors made 15 recoveries, 9 of which were in the Venezuela half.
More, please.
