Yaser Asprilla He left his mark on Montilivi during the goalless draw against Rayo Vallecano, despite failing to capitalize on the clear chances he had. He was one of the main focuses of the ‘blanc-i-vermell’ attack, and although his insistence did not show on the scoreboard, his performance showed reason for great confidence which both the coaching staff and the board of directors deposited with him.
Asprilla, with a slight 20 yearsis the club’s biggest investment to date, and perhaps that label has weighed on it at times. Added to this is the fact of carrying the number 10a number of great relationships with any team and that in Girona seems to have been given too soon.
Míchel, in his remarks after the game, was clear: “The ’10’ cannot be given to a young player. This is a number to earn”. These words, far from being a direct criticism, reflect the expectation and responsibility that falls on the shoulders of the Colombian, who must consolidate himself over time to live up to the iconic figure.
However, his performance against Rayo was remarkable. Colombian is one of the most incisors throughout the match, actively participating in his team’s most dangerous plays. Asprilla was the star on several occasions that could have changed the course of the game. A one-on-one fight with Batalla, who preferred to finish with his feet rather than his head, and a powerful shot that crashed into the crossbar showed his skill.
Despite the flaws in definition, Asprilla is always ready to look ahead, to face their rivals and take charge of the attack. He was applauded when he was substituted in the 76th minute, a recognition of his continued efforts and his courage in trying to break down the opposition defense in a match that became more complicated as the minutes passed. However, the coach is convinced that, with time and work, Asprilla will show why Girona bet on him. “He’s a good kid, he’ll get better”coach commented.
His attitude On the field, despite the missed opportunities, he showed that he does not allow himself to be intimidated by mistakes. In a match where anxiety about scoring hindered some of his teammates, the Colombian remained calm and continued to insist, something important for the team’s progress.
