A imprensa argentina enalteceu a atuação dos hermanos na vitória por 2 a 1 sobre o Brasil, na madrugada desta segunda-feira, pela terceira rodada do hexagonal final do Sul-Americano Sub-20. A alegria maior ficou por conta da exibição do meia-atacante Iturbe, considerado o "novo Messi", que marcou o segundo gol da partida.
Segundo o jornal Olé, o fato do jogador estar em campo é "um roubo". O periódico ainda exaltou a "atitude" dos argentinos - que asseguraram vaga no Mundial da categoria, em julho -, contra "um Brasil com menos um desde os cinco minutos".
Sobre Neymar, a quem os argentinos batizaram de "Neymaradona", o Olé destacou a atuação nervosa e o cartão amarelo que resultou na suspensão na partida contra o Equador.» in http://desporto.sapo.pt//multimedia/videos/ultimos/#73Hc8KUnYHzeoYkBHHMV"Juan Iturbe golo com Argentina Sub-20"
