After yet another great performance by Rodrigo Palacio in Sabellas Argentinian national team, the biggest Argentinian sportspaper Olé, heaps praise over the player despite the loss against Uruguay.

“In Inter he is the player who carries the supporters, despite being poorly marketed. In the national team he is the atackaer who sacrifices himself, does the hard work, the person who puts the team above everything. This is Rodrigo Palacio, the striker who has conquered Sabellas heart and who is sure of a place in the squad destined to go to the World Cup thanks to his great generosity in a team which is unbalanced in that it is too attacking. Yesterday he demonstrated his versatility by playing as a lone striker where he was the brain behind the first goal as well as creating other chances for his team-mates.”
