Summary of Bentancur’s performance against Argentina

Came on in 62nd min with Uruguay already ahead.

His tackle on Messi set up Uruguay’s second goal.

He was seen with Romero’s shorts & Messi’s shirt after the match.

In 34 mins: 2 clearances, 2 interceptions, 1 headed clearance, 1 recovery on Messi, 1 pass into the final 3rd, 10 accurate passes (one off target), 20 touches of the ball.

Tottenham & Postecoglou will monitor if he starts next game vs Bolivia.

So happy for Benny. Must feel great after such a long recovery. Selfishly, he’s coming back closer to being match fit for #COYS 🥳

@LouiseMF @coys @spurs Yeah, I wonder what the calculus is in Ange’s head (bearing in mind some of the things talked about in that Tifo pod). Seems like useful time in his legs, but the priorities of Uruguay are different.

Yep, Benny playing for Uruguay uses/refines different physicalities to Angeball.

Nevertheless, these games refine endurance, tackles, start/stop, etc., but vitally for a player off pitch for so long, it’s a self-confidence affirmation boost.

Knowing his physicality’s close to pre-injury range, gives Ange confidence in handing Benny more game time/ responsiblity. How and when - in Ange we trust!

Benny can expect pre-match day 1, 2 ,3 ,4 Angeball training tweaks!
