Darío Benedetto’s new viral catchphrase: “Too much water kills the plant” | OneFootball

The phrases are already part of his trademark. Darío Benedetto once again caused a stir on social media after dropping a new statement that quickly went viral. In a conversation with influencer Benjamín Annunziata, the forward surprised with a comment as brief as it was striking: “Too much water kills the plant.”

The phrase emerged during a fun ping-pong of questions and answers that Annunziata proposed to the former Boca forward. Without much ado and in his usual style, Benedetto launched the expression, which quickly started circulating on social media and added to the repertoire of quotes that have accompanied him for some years now.

The episode immediately recalled another of his most iconic phrases, the one he left during his time at Boca: “Happy nights, sad mornings,” a statement that at the time shook the blue and gold world and became entrenched in football folklore. Over time, Benedetto himself took it upon himself to downplay it.

In a past interview, Pipa claimed not to remember having said it and explained the context in which it originated. “That phrase was told to us by coach Valdecantos when someone was feeling a bit off. The night before, I celebrated my birthday and in the morning, I was dead,” he had recounted, downplaying the controversy that had arisen around that statement.

Today, Benedetto is going through a new stage in his career. A recent addition to Barcelona SC, the forward arrived in Ecuadorian football with the aim of competing for the Copa Libertadores and contributing his international experience.

As he prepares for this sporting challenge, Pipa once again demonstrated that, on and off the field, he still has a special knack for leaving phrases that do not go unnoticed and that, like “too much water kills the plant,” quickly become viral material.
