Nico Paz shines during the international break: 3 goals in 3 games

Nico Paz scored in all three of Argentina’s matches during the latest international break, finishing the window with three goals, one assist and an average rating of 8.1.

Strong return for Argentina

Paz was one of Argentina’s most productive players across the three games. His goals came in every appearance, while he also added an assist.

The standout moment came against Benin, when he scored from a Lionel Messi pass. That strike came in a run in which he kept affecting matches in attack through his link-up play.

Paz has been billed in recent years as one of Argentina’s more promising young talents, and this spell gave him a longer run to show that form on the international stage. Three goals in three matches is the central number from the break, with the assist and 8.1 average rating adding to it.
