Impeccable first phase for Peñaranda’s Venezuela

Adalberto Peñaranda has taken part in an excellent group stage by Venezuela in the Under-20 World Cup, taking place in the Korea Republic.

The Malaguista striker, on loan from English side, Watford since the winter transfer market, collaborated with a goal and three assists in Venezuela’s three victories against Germany (2-0), Vanuatu (7-0) and Mexico (0-1). As such, the ‘vinotinto’ are leaders of Group B with 9 points, 10 goals scored and none conceded.

Tomorrow, Tuesday at 10:00 (Spanish time), at the Daejeon World Cup Stadium, Peñaranda’s Venezuela will be seeking a quarter-final place against Japan’s under-20s.
