Enzo Barrenechea, called up by Argentina National Team
Valencia CF player called up to play the 2026 World Cup qualifiers against Paraguay and Peru.
Valencia CF ambassador and legendary former player Ricardo Arias added his voice to those speaking out about a controversial penalty decision given against the club, in the LaLiga game against FC Barcelona. The match eventually ended 2-2, with Jaume Domènech keeping out the spot kick but unable to prevent Leo Messi from scoring from the subsequent attack.
“From my point of view, and with the repetitions I saw on the monitor, I don't consider that it was a penalty. There are many people who evaluate these decisions and they must be respected, but in my opinion it was not a penalty,” he told Spanish television channel Movistar+.
Regarding the match itself Arias highlighted that Valencia CF did not back down against FC Barcelona.
“Barça dominated in terms of possession, but not in terms of clear chances, I think that Valencia CF were far better than Barça in that regard. We are seeing the Valencia CF we want to see, playing with conviction and matching Barça.”
