The three key players from River's Club World Cup debut 3️⃣
River debuted with a victory against Urawa Red Diamonds and we bring you the three protagonists of the match.
Facundo Colidio achieved efficiency
If there is one issue for which the striker has been criticized, it has been for needing many chances to score.
Well, in this match, he warned in the first that hit the post and the second that he had allowed River to open the scoring. Finally, he achieved effectiveness.
Marcos Acuña, from enemy to hero
The match of the ex-Racing had it all. He assisted for the first goal of the match, but when River went 2-0, he committed a clear penalty that gave life to Urawa.
And to redeem himself, with a great execution from a corner kick, once again he dressed as an assistant in Maxi Meza's goal. Highs and lows for Marcos who ended with a positive balance.
A more than exciting duel of fans
Everyone was waiting for the show of the Argentine fans who sang during the 90 minutes, but from the stands opposite they also gave the gift and the duel between the stands was another of the great attractions of the match.

Tom Cleverley (left) had Damon Lathrope as his assistant at Watford [Getty Images] Newly appointed Plymouth Argyle head coach Tom Cleverley has brought in three new members of his backroom team. The trio all worked with Cleverley when he was Watford manager before he left the club last month. Advertisement Damon Lathrope will take on the role of assistant head coach - the former Torquay United player had a similar role alongside Cleverley at Vicarage Road. Meanwhile, Matt Bevans joins as first-team coach, and Chris Douglas has been appointed as first-team performance analyst. The trio will work alongside long-serving coach Kevin Nancekivell and goalkeeping coach Darryl Flahavan. Cleverley was unveiled as Miron Muslic's successor as head coach last Friday after the former Pilgrims boss left the club to join German side Schalke. Muslic's assistant Adin Osmanbasic and head of athletic performance Eddie Lattimore have both left the club. Advertisement "Damon, Matt and Chris are three people I know well and are all top class in their respective areas," Cleverley told the Plymouth Argyle website. "They know the way I work, I know the way they work, and I am thrilled they have decided to join the exciting project we have here at Argyle. "All three have bought into our plans and the plans of the club and are really excited to be here in the South West. "I am pleased to bring them with me so quickly and have them in place ahead of pre-season starting on Friday. The hard work starts now, and we are all looking forward to getting going."

Jets' Breece Hall Ready To Cash In On 'Potential' After Taking 'Blame'
Jets' Breece Hall Ready To Cash In On 'Potential' After Taking 'Blame' originally appeared on Athlon Sports. New York Jets running back Breece Hall is one of the most talented backs in football, but he doesn't have the stats to back it up in his first three NFL seasons. Advertisement Breece has yet to hit 1,000 yards or have more than five rushing touchdowns in a season, which, for any great back, are two statistics that are usually far higher. But after a season where he, along with most of the offense under Aaron Rodgers, failed miserably, Hall is ready to put that behind him as he copped a fair share of the blame for the offense's inconsistent form. 'It's always frustrating when you're not as a team and then individually when you're not winning games and playing as well as you expect,' Hall said. 'Then after that, there's always somebody to blame or somebody that blame gets puts on, and a lot of it just so happened to be on me. "So it was like okay, just get back to the drawing board, get back to working hard. I know what I can do, the potential I have, but potential only goes so far. I want to be a [finished] product, to be able to say that I've done everything I wanted to do.' New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers (8) reacts as he talks to running back Breece Hall (20).Brad Penner-Imagn Images Set to be part of a three-back system under Engstrand with Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis, Breece won't be the No. 1 bellcow he has been for his first three seasons. Advertisement That isn't ideal when you're fighting for a new contract, and to show the new regime you deserve to be the top dog. But Hall is putting his head down and getting to work as he looks to put a poor 2024 season (876 yards, five touchdowns) behind him, and hit the ground running under Engstrand. There is no denying Breece's potential as an NFL running back, but is 2025 when that potential manifests itself into something tangible? His Jets future might depend on it.
