Andrey “Gato” Salmeron and Ricardo Peña, players of Futbol Consultants, had excellent performances with the Costa Rican U-20 National in two friendly matches against Honduras.
Both players were in the starting 11 for both matches. The Costa Rican Federation highlighted their work during the recap of the 2-0 win in the first game.
“Costa Rica withstood the onslaught, with an efficient line of central midfielders led by Ricardo Pena and Andrey Salmerón, who held a tight line in the visitors defensive block”, said the Fedefutbol on its website.
