The seven touches that led to Chilean Cavani’s goal in the Argentina Cup

The great goal of the Chilean half Edinson Cavani for the 32nd Argentine Cup final it was the culmination of a game that began on Boca’s right flank, the area in which Lucas Blondel moves in the version of Boca that Diego Martínez presented to face Central Norte. It was the right back who stole the ball from Wayne Rooney -Germán Lesman-, starter for the Salta team.

Subsequently, the defender made the first of seven passes into the opponent’s area, from where came Miguel Merentiel’s assist which Cavani completed with a splendid pirouette to extend the lead over the team contesting Federal A.

The game was fast, with just one touch and when it looked like it wasn’t going to end well, the Uruguayan resolved a cross from his compatriot Miguel Merentiel, from the right.

Cavani’s performance is reminiscent of that match in which he broke the 0-0 spell with a hat-trick against Belgrano which sparked a celebration at the Bombonera. In Santiago del Estero he opened the match with his goals and made his way into a cup that has nothing less than qualification for the Copa Libertadores as its prize.
