Fede Valverde, the heir to the celestial claw

Date:

Fede Valverde showed against South Korea on Thursday in his World Cup debut why he, at the age of 24, is the new leader of the new Uruguayan team. Why he was called to be the heir of a legendary celestial generation.

The Real Madrid midfielder supported Uruguay in their most difficult moments against South Korea (0-0) and also had, along with Diego Godín, Uruguay’s best chance. Valverde fired in a crosshead and Godín turned it, after a header, onto a post.

Although he played without the freedom he usually had at Real Madrid, Valverde put in a lot of punch and quality. And passion. Unique elements in the history of the Uruguayan team. So in the end, almost without energy, Valverde managed to cut off a counterattack as a discount and almost celebrated it as if it was a goal.

In the first half, Fede Valverde starred in Uruguay’s first clear chance, after a pass by José María Giménez. The ball is deflected into the celestial medium. On the second day of group H, the Uruguayan team will face Portugal.
