The Colombian Kevin de Bruyne? This is how they describe Edwuin Cetré in Argentina

ANDColombian Edwuin Cetré was instrumental in avoiding a historic victory for The Strongest, from Bolivia, as a visitor against Estudiantes de La Plata. From 0-1 down from the 21st minute, the Argentine club turned it around and took the victory.

Cetré, who arrived at Estudiantes this year from Independiente Medellín, and who was playing his first Libertadores game with this club, He shone by appearing in both goal actions.

First, he provided an assist for Guido Carrillo, who tied the game in the 65th minute.

And then, the Colombian invented a great goal, after a clearance from Carrillo himself, to seal the match. The Bolivians had taken the lead with a goal from the Argentine Enrique Triverio.

The Strongest, who had already surprised on the first day of the group stage by beating Gremio 2-0 in La Paz, looked like a feat, and even more so, when the Colombian referee Nicolás Gallo had sent off the defender after 8 minutes Cameroonian, nationalized Bolivian, Marc Francois Enoumba for a strong tackle against Javier Correa. Cetré avoided it.

Why was Edwuin Cetré compared to Kevin de Bruyne?

The Colombian was compared, in the television broadcast, to the Belgian Kevin de Bruyne, one of the great figures of Manchester City. The reason? Cetré's goal was very similar to one that De Bruyne scored this weekend against Crystal Palace.

“Are you the Kevin de Bruyne of La Plata?” the reporter asked the attacker, born in Cali and with a past in the Junior de Barranquilla and the Colombia Under-23 National Team.

The best was Cetré's response. “I got burned, he's too white to be Kevin de Bruyne,” he said.

Cetré has 12 games with Estudiantes, 10 in the Argentine League, one in the Cup and one in the Libertadores. This Tuesday was his second goal. He had converted the first on Friday, in the 5-0 win over Central Córdoba in Santiago.
