Tomás Pérez scores for Argentina at the Under-20 World Cup | OneFootball

Three days after making his debut as a substitute in the U-20 World Cup, Tomás Pérez moved from the bench to the starting lineup and took just 45 minutes to justify the Argentine coach's bet.

Starting as a central midfielder in a three-man defense in the second round of the U-20 World Cup, the FC Porto midfielder scored the second goal in Argentina's victory over Australia (4-1), which put the Albiceleste team at the top of Group D with six points, two more than Italy.

Already qualified for the round of 16, the Albiceleste team will take the field again at midnight on Sunday, once again in Valparaíso, to face their Italian counterparts in the last round of the group stage. The tournament runs until the 20th of this month in Chile.
