VIDEO: Edinson Cavani shines even at 37 years old. He’s been scoring goal after goal for Boca Juniors, and now he’s made two goals to secure promotion

Last season we could still see him in the Spanish Valencia jersey, but since the summer Edinson Cavani has been giving joy in South America. Not in his native Uruguay, however, but in Argentina, where his goals are dragging down the famous Boc Juniors. He last showed his class on Saturday.

Last season we could still see him in the Spanish Valencia jersey, but since the summer Edinson Cavani has been giving joy in South America. Not in his native Uruguay, however, but in Argentina, where his goals are dragging down the famous Boc Juniors. He last showed his class on Saturday.

At his peak, he was one of the best strikers on the planet. He scored 200 competitive goals for PSG in France, another 104 for Napoli in Italy, but he also confirmed his qualities at Manchester United and Palermo.

Edinson Cavani spent last season at Valencia, where he scored seven goals. Considering the amount of time he spent on the pitch, plagued by injuries, playing in a struggling team and that he has his best years behind him, a solid record.

But in the summer, the Uruguayan footballer left Europe for good. The scorer of 58 national team goals was recruited by Argentina’s Boca Juniors, a legendary South American club with phenomenal fans.

At first, the Uruguayan cannonballer was relatively slow to shoot, but in the new season, which started recently, he is unstoppable and scores goal after goal. Even at 37 years old.

Edinson Cavani made a great scissor kick

While Edinson Cavani scored only three goals in the Argentine big club’s jersey after his arrival, he is doing much better in the new season. He has scored eight times in eight league games and also shone in the Argentine Cup on Saturday.

He scored two goals in the 3-0 win over Central Norte. His first goal in particular was an exhibition. Boca Juniors showed a great combination action from their half to the opponent’s hexagon and the Uruguayan made a beautiful scissor kick after a good centre.

In February, the seasoned cannonballer celebrated his 37th birthday, but his performance clearly did not show it.
