Expert Analysis

Playing on the right wing, Valcarcel had a solid game, being a constant threat to HTX’s backline. In the first half, he had a great run out wide and missed the goal by just a few inches with his finish. The winger was very aggressive when he had possession, attempting to beat opposing defenders off the dribble and displaying a good repertoire to either take the ball to the end line or bring it inside. Valcarcel was of huge importance in Albion’s last-second equalizer as he had the ball in his feet inside the penalty box and could have shot it, but was calm and smart enough to assist Ordonez, who was on a better spot.
