Claudio Echeverri, a recent Manchester City signing, demonstrated his promising talent by scoring two goals as Argentina defeated Brazil 6-0 in their opening match of the South American U20 Championship. Argentina quickly established dominance, scoring three goals within the first eleven minutes. Echeverri emphasized the team's readiness and motivation to perform against such a fierce rival. The championship is crucial as it offers the top four teams qualification for the U20 World Cup in Chile, where Brazil is historically dominant with 12 titles. Ecuador also secured a victory against Bolivia in a preceding match.
We did an amazing job, we were ready for this. We are always motivated to play against Brazil. We will not relax, we need to keep improving.
Argentina scored its first three goals in the first minutes of play, with Ian Subiabre (sixth minute), Echeverri (eight), and an own goal by Igor Serrote (11th).
