Fantasy Premier League assets from Mexico and Uruguay continued their involvement in summer tournaments.
Both nations are faring relatively well in the Copa America and CONCACAF Gold Cup and look likely to go deeper into the competitions.
We’ve rounded up the latest action.
CONCACAF Gold Cup
Mexico 3-1 Canada
Raúl Jiménez may not have come out of Mexico’s 3-1 win over Canada with any goals or official assists but he was still pivotal to the result.
The Wolves striker would have earned himself a Fantasy assist for his country’s opener as it was his first time shot in the box which was rebounded into the path of scorer Roberto Alvarado.
It was his hard work in a high press that led to the second Mexico goal after half-time.
His tackle on an unwitting defender pushed the ball to Andres Guardado who fired in a thunderous effort from range.
Finally, it was Jiménez’s brilliantly won header which released Uriel Antuna down the right flank to square for Guardado, who made it 3-1 with ease.
The FPL favourite already scored a brace in Mexico’s 7-0 win over Cuba and has been arguably one of his country’s best players at the tournament so far.
Wolves fans and Fantasy managers alike will be hoping he keeps up his form and can carry it into 2019/20 with full fitness to boot.
Copa America
Uruguay 2-2 Japan
Lucas Torreira got his first start of the Copa America in the second round of Group Stage matches.
The Arsenal midfielder featured only as a substitute earlier this week as his country beat Ecuador 4-0.
For the clash with Japan, Torreira came back into the central midfield of Oscar Tabarez’s 4-4-2 formation for Matias Vecino.
He was largely anonymous as Uruguay twice had to come back from a trailing position but had one moment of brilliance as a skilfull flick set up a chance for Luis Suárez.
4 years, 10 months agoGot a feeling Jimenez new price will be off putting, but hoping otherwise.
Feel the same about Wilson.
Who do people think are worth considering in the 6 - 8 bracket.
Murray seen his best?
Deeney going to start?
