In every game, Lucas Alario shows why he is a key figure in Estudiantes' attack. His mobility, combined with an incredible finishing ability, makes him a true headache for opposing defenses. It's no surprise that in the last five games, Alario has scored four goals, positioning him as one of the team's top scorers.
Last weekend, under rain, Estudiantes faced Gimnasia La Plata in an exciting derby. Alario was instrumental in the 2-1 victory, scoring the first goal with a precise header from a corner. The crowd at the Estadio Jorge Luis Hirschi erupted with joy every time he touched the ball. Moreover, his off-the-ball work has been equally impressive, providing assists and creating opportunities for his teammates.
The coach has praised his work ethic and noted that Alario is a role model for young players. With his experience in Europe, he brings vision and technique that greatly benefit the team. The connection between him and teammates, like B. Aguirre, is clearly growing, which could be key at the end of the season.
