Nico Paz made his World Cup debut with Argentina, expressing that it was a dream come true. He showed his qualities on the pitch and spoke about the support he received from his coach and teammates.
Nico Paz has had a great impact in Serie A and will remain at Como. What's more, the attacking midfielder made his World Cup debut today with Argentina. Even though he didn't score, he showed off his qualities and showed that he can rise to the occasion at the highest level. He spoke to official FIFA channels after the match win against Jordan, making it clear that it was a dream come true. The attacking midfielder said – via TMW: "The truth is that I have achieved a dream that I have had all my life. Few people can say that they have played in a World Cup, and even fewer can say that if they are starters. It is a great source of pride for me. If I play well, I can capitalize on the trust that has been placed in me, just like everyone else does." He also talked about his club and how the two situations are different for him. "I tried to play as I usually do with my club, and I think I played well. Before the match, the coach told me to be myself and that everyone is counting on me. They support me, telling me not to be afraid to take initiative." Nico Paz's debut was well deserved, given the long journey he has made in the last two years. With Leo Messi getting closer and closer to retirement with every match, there is every chance that the Como star could take over from him in the years to come.
