Taty the heir to the Messi throne confirmed.
taty has been playing really well at lazio. so great to see him succeeding. all well deserved. hopefully he'll get to the point where he's got the spotlight on him as much as other argentinian stars
Really impressive start for Taty in Italy, 5 goals, and 1 assist. For comparison his competition Lautaro Martinez is sitting at 5 goals and 2 assists and Julian Alverez has 3 goals and an assist for Atletico.
Plus 3 Yellow Cards so far this season. So, he is tied for 5th in goals and tied for 10th in Yellow Cards.
Add to that for all those Lucho haters, his flop over the weekend to draw a red would have given me a complete conniption if I was rooting for the opposition.

That's our guy.
I suspended a rule and allowed that one in. I'm glad I did.
Can anyone figure out what he actually did to get a red? It didn't look to me like he lashed out at anyone. All embellishment.
Barely leaned his forehead into him and the usual embellished reaction. Shameless.
He kicked out at hummels pretty harshly right after hummels knocks him over

That is, unfortunately, clearly a red card lol
Ahh, that’s def worse than the head tap.
yes, yes it is haha. I have an italian friend who is a Roma fan, he actually sent me these sources so I assumed it was public knowledge... but once the questions were asked here I figured most people haven't seen it?
Even on reddit people are asking why it's a red. Weird that this angle isn't shown more...
I didn't see that angle. That's clear as glass.
I think even Taty agrees. At the end of the CBS sports clip Gene posted Taty casually walked over to the ref to get his card, took the Red, and nodded at the ref like yup I'm good with that.
Okay, for those of us scoring from home, here is where he stands in 2024-25 - Serie A only.
His rankings in Serie A so far this season.
Goals - T5
Yellows - T4
Reds - T4
Goals - T5
