One of the biggest talents in Major League Soccer overseas, Argentine Thiago Almada has confirmed his great form. In his Atlanta match, he scored a superb direct kick from less than 35 metres, which his national teammate Lionel Messi could also boast.

At the World Cup, he played only eight minutes for Argentina in the Group C match against Poland and then did not see the field again. Even though midfielder Thiago Almada didn’t get much of a kick in Qatar, he can still boast a gold medal.

the 21-year-old offensive midfielder, however, has been rocking especially on the club scene. He has scored four goals and added four assists for his Atlanta United team, which is in first place in the MLS Eastern Conference after four games.

That’s a feat that no one in MLS history has ever accomplished in the first four games. The young Argentine midfielder confirms the great form he showed during today’s match against Portland.

He scored two goals and added two assists. He contributed significantly to his team’s 5-1 win. Especially his first goal shortly before the change of sides was really worth it.

In the fifth minute of the first half, he scored a direct kick that he will never forget. The fact that it flew practically to the side where the goalkeeper was standing only proves how exceptional it was.

He will be able to confirm his form next week during the national team meeting. Argentina will play two games and Almada will certainly play a bigger role than he did in Qatar.

If he continues such performances, he will surely see a bigger European engagement soon. Already years ago, the famous Barcelona were circling around him.
