While the majority of Argentines were entertained -or not- with the actions of Date 2 of the Professional Football Leaguein Comodoro Rivadavia, Chubut, A 17-year-old youth scored an extraordinary goal for the local league. He was an anthological rabona, a product of the imagination and talent of Mariano Riegelwho gave the score in the overwhelming 5-0 of Hurricane of that city on Deportivo Sarmiento.

The place of the events was Kilometer 3 Municipal Stadium, located on Fray Luis Beltrán Avenue in the oil city, where the fans who attended not only delighted with Huracán’s victory, but more than anything the great goal by young Riegel with sublime technical quality.

The balloon escaped on the scoreboard with the goals of Nicolás Abregú -in duplicate-, Ernesto Armoa y Facundo Araya. But the best came with the last conquest that was the work of the teenager Riegel. He started with a dominated ball in three quarters of the field, he evaded three rivals and when he got into the area he threatened to hit him with his skilled leg and looked left-footed but, to everyone’s surprise, he threw a rabona and put the ball next to the stick.

It is a goal that could easily be a candidate for Puskas, the award given by FIFA at The Best ceremony. However, the player is cautious. “I think the goal could go far, but it is difficult for Puskas to be“he told Clarion.

Regarding the use of the rabona as a resource to resolve a play, Riegel said that since he is not very skilled with his left leg, the rabona always came out strong and therefore he uses it a lot.

After the goal, he received recognition from his teammates and also from his rivals. “In the game there was only one from the other team who congratulated mebut then everyone told me that I had scored a great goal. I didn’t see the goalkeeper“the boy jokes.

Be careful, it is not the first time that Riegel has scored a goal like this since when he was playing in the U17 Regional Tournament he scored a rabona goal against Cipolletti.

Originally from Misiones, when he was two years old he went to live in Comodoro Rivadavia. “I have been in Huracán since I was 12.. I started in the Ninth Division, they called me as a child and I never wanted to leave,” he reviewed and stressed that he is very happy at the club.

With this goal, Riegel had his debut on the networks in the Apertura Tournament of the local league, but he reached five goals in the First Division since his debut in May 22, 2022, at 15 years old, in a match he will never forget. In addition, he was happy to score twice in what was a 9-0 win over Florentino Ameghino.

With the great goal he scored he attracted the attention of several clubs: “I was once or twice surveyed by First Division teams, but now with this they are reaching me much more“. On social networks some users of X (formerly Twitter) began to ask him to play on Patricios Park Hurricane and another user dared to recommend it for Columbus of Santa Fe, who these days are in the fight to return to the Professional League.

Huracán de Comodoro Rivadavia is doing very well in the local tournament, since it is four points behind the leader, which is Club Atlético Jorge Newbery.

Riegel is also going through his last year of high school.”I always took her well to school. Now it’s a bit difficult for me because of the schedule, but I’m always trying to do everything right.“.

Taking into account that it is his last year, the boy is convinced that he is going to dedicate his life to football. And he has the endorsement of his parents. “They did everything possible to buy me cleats, take me to the club and pay me what I needed.“, he thanks them while dreaming of taking the big leap… By dint of rabonas.
