Adam Bareiro reveals why he celebrated with Paredes, Merentiel | OneFootball

Paraguayan Adam Bareiro revealed why he celebrates together with Leandro Paredes and Miguel Merentiel every time they score a goal. During the celebration, they sit down on the pitch, which caught everyone’s attention. Now the reason is known.

The forward arrived at Boca from Fortaleza, in a move by Juan Román Riquelme that paid off. Despite his poor spell at River, where he had left a bad impression in Argentine football, since arriving at the club from La Ribera, he has turned opinions around and is now enjoying a great run of form.

He quickly became part of the heart of the squad, and the confidence transmitted to him, especially by captain Leandro Paredes, was key for him to repay it with goals on the pitch. His strike partner, Miguel Merentiel, has also been a fundamental factor in the Paraguayan’s strong performances. He spends most of his time off the pitch with both of them, and that is where the goal celebration comes from.

Boca celebrated in Córdoba thanks to Bareiro’s goal.

“Hopefully it becomes a habit, and obviously hopefully we can keep scoring so we can do it,” he said in reference to the celebration they did again in the 1-0 win over Talleres de Córdoba. They had previously done it at La Bombonera against Instituto.

About the celebration itself, Bareiro said in an interview with El Canal de Boca: “It’s a celebration because we always get together to play truco among ourselves. So it’s really nice, I’m very happy to celebrate those goals with them, and we hope to keep making it a habit.”

He also commented on Paredes and Merentiel: “I came across two excellent players and excellent people here at the club. Lea welcomed me in the best way when I arrived. The truth is that day by day he shows me what it means to be a Boca player.”

He went on about the captain: “It’s really wonderful to have a leader like him, someone who won everything in his career on the pitch, and then also to have him there off it, where he’s just another friend. The truth is, he makes you feel that way, and obviously he is always pushing forward so things turn out well.”
