Independiente lacked the final touch to create great goal scoring opportunities in the first half of their Copa Libertadores match against Peñarol, but they have looked like a completely different team coming out of the gate in the second half. Facundo Parra has scored a goal just two minutes after the start of the half to put Independiente ahead, but while his finish was great, the goal was a complete team effort, made by some great exchanges of one touch passing. It was obviously the kind of thing that only a team with skilled players who had played together before could produce, making everyone wonder, “Where was that in the first half?”
Independiente Vs. Peñarol: Facundo Parra Goal Puts Diablo Rojo Ahead
The entire Independiente midfield and forward line was involved in making the goal, exchanging a number of passes between them before Parra played a one touch pass out to the left flank. The ball was promptly returned to him with a cross, and yet again, with his first touch, Parra did exactly what he intended with the ball, redirecting it into the back of the net to give his team a 1-0 lead.
