The Frenchman played up front alongside Matheus Cunha and, although he didn’t score, played a decisive role in two of Atlético’s goals. In the first, he started the game with a great opening to Lodi, and in the second half, he gave the ball to De Paul very generously when he had a clear chance to finish the game himself.

After the injury, I’m here, trying to restore my best level. It’s true that I didn’t score goals and the team conceded a lot, but I continued to work for the team in attack or defense.
