Boyé, the scorer of Elche with 10,000 blocked in networks

After the bad feelings against Real Sociedad in the first game after promotion to First Division, the Elche won a breath of oxygen in the victory by the minimum against Eibar. The great protagonist of the duel was Lucas Boyé, author of the only goal of the match. The forward, practically a newcomer, picked up a rebound inside the area, oriented the ball with his knee, turned around and landed a powerful right hand that slipped tight to the left post of the goal defended by Dmitrovic. He celebrated with rage. His thing was to arrive and kiss the saint. A 24-year-old player who, however, already has a long history in the world of football.

In fact, it is not his only experience in Spain, since He went through Celta de Vigo in 2018. Before, he had his first experience as a professional in Argentine soccer, specifically in River Plate (2014-16) and Newell's (2015-16, on loan), where he had to deal with numerous criticisms, which he could not face perhaps due to his youth. Born in 1996, the footballer is only 24 years old and, in his day, he lived the responsibility of defending the shirts of Argentine clubs with just the age of majority on his identity card.

In an interview with TyC Sports, the Elche striker openly acknowledged his problem with insults, when he was already a Reading player: “Between Instagram and Twitter I have more than 10,000 people blocked. From a very young age I have had to live with criticism and before that affected me, but now I am much better. Once my WhatsApp number was leaked and they kept adding me to different groups. They all had the same goal, which was to criticize me“. Football player, with 125,000 followers on his Twitter account, he hardly shares messages beyond tweets from his teams or a personal photograph.

At the moment, it has not won criticism in Elche. In what was his debut with the Elche shirt, he scored the decisive goal, as well as great caliber. Almirón placed him in the starting eleven, despite the fact that he had barely completed a session with his teammates, and praised their efforts at a press conference: “Boyé made a great goal. He hadn't played for a long time and he held out what he could. He has only done one training session with the team and it was not easy to play as he did. Above all, he did great physical work for his colleagues. He held the ball a lot and from then on we started to attack. “

Boyé, in his presentation, was ambitious with what is to come and affirmed to be close to his football maturity: “In the teams I have been in, I have learned things and my head has been acquiring information that helps me improve. I am a fighting player, I like to touch and sacrifice myself for the team. It is true that my statistics do not show my goals, but I have not played as a reference either, but with another striker or on the wing. I hope I can vindicate myself. ”Said and done, his first game was a success and he aims to establish himself in the starting position if he continues at this level.
