Facundo Pellistri, a winger for Manchester United, has done it once more. He always appears to have an effect.
Following his recent role in Uruguay’s demolition of Lionel Messi’s Argentina last week, Facundo Pellistri has guided his country to even another triumph.
This time, Facundo Pellistri made a significant contribution by providing an early assist that Darwin Nunez was unable to miss.
Pellistri has grown into a significant player for Marcelo Bielsa’s revamped team, who now lead the Conmebol World Cup qualifying standings.
Aided by Facundo Pellistri
Uruguay was the clear favorite to defeat Bolivia following their victory over Argentina, when the Manchester United winger received a 9/10 rating from the Uruguayan press for his performance.
In just the eighth minute, Pellistri set up the first goal as they cruised to a convincing victory.
The contribution from Pellistri was precisely what supporters of Manchester United have come to expect from him. Running straight toward the opponent, he carried the ball to the goal line and then cut it back just in time for Nunez to score.
