Angel Correa defended Julian Alvarez for his lack of goals, saying he is calm and has no doubt that the forward’s strikes will come. “Those of us around him have to try to help him. If he doesn’t have chances to score goals, it’s because those of us who are around him can’t help him either. He has quality and goals to spare,” he said.
Atletico Madrid playmaker Angel Correa said on Thursday that his compatriot Julian Alvarez “has to be calm, because he has plenty of quality and goals to spare”, while considering that, if he is not getting chances, it is because the players around him in the rest of the team have not been able to help him either.
“I see him very calm, enjoying himself. He’s pleased here in Madrid with his family. Those of us around him in the game have to try to help him, because if he doesn’t have chances to score goals it’s because those of us who are next to him can’t assist him either. It’s a team game. He has to be calm because he has plenty of quality and goals to spare,” he said after his side’s 2-1 win over Leipzig in the Champions League.
“And very happy for our victory, which was very hard work because we knew they were a tough opponent and they showed it. They played very well,” explained the Argentinian.
“We hope to continue this way, working with the strength, desire and enthusiasm to have a great year,” he added.
