"Agu is maturing, head coach Pascal Jansen said after the match. He plays more mature, more solid possession and more threat in the attack. You can rely and trust him when we're out of possession."
"A lot of times with young players, they experience peaks and valleys, Dax McCarty, MLS analyst and former New York Red Bull, told amNY. So you just have to try to get them to a level of consistency that you know you can rely on them."
"Keaton Parks found Ojeda well inside the Union half, and timed his run beautifully to beat his marker. With two touches, he did well to deceive and wrong-foot the retreating Francis Westfield, but the Argentine could not wrap his right foot around the ball enough, slamming it onto the post in the 26th minute."
Agustin Ojeda played a pivotal role in NYCFC's 2-1 win over Philadelphia Union, operating on both wings as a constant offensive and defensive threat. The 5-foot-7 Argentine winger provided the assist for Fernandez Mercau's opening goal and the cross for Tayvon Gray's winner. Head coach Pascal Jansen praised Ojeda's maturation, noting improved possession quality, attacking threat, and defensive reliability. Despite creating three chances and hitting the post once, Ojeda's performance highlighted his development as a consistent contributor. At 20 years old, he continues to show the potential that earned him starts or substitute appearances in all 43 matches last season.
