Rodrigo Auzmendi, the forward who quickly won the hearts of San Lorenzo fans, recalled his impactful debut with two goals against Defensa y Justicia, a match that signaled the end of Damián Ayude's tenure at the Boedo club. Despite the 5-2 loss to the Halcón, Auzmendi made his mark from his very first touch, showcasing his goal-scoring prowess.
Since his arrival, Auzmendi has demonstrated total commitment, establishing himself as a key player for the Ciclón. Recently, he scored the winning goal for San Lorenzo against Platense, securing qualification spots in the Liga Profesional, and started in the draw against Santos in the Copa Sudamericana. His rapid adaptation and performance have made him a crucial figure.
In an exclusive interview with Marcelo Benedetto for DSports Radio on the "Cómo te va" program, the striker expressed his happiness at the club. "I'm trying to help the team in my own way; obviously, as a forward, one has to convert chances and score goals," he stated, emphasizing his quick adaptation despite a "strange" transfer window.
Auzmendi made his future intentions at San Lorenzo clear. "I am very happy at the club; my idea is to finish the year here and be able to reach an agreement to continue here," he declared, showing his commitment to the institution. He also discussed topics such as the arrival of Gustavo Álvarez and his unique encounter with Neymar.
The forward highlighted the demands of a club like San Lorenzo and his desire for continuous improvement. "A club like San Lorenzo demands a lot, and one has to respond; for now, I'm doing well, but I don't want to settle and I want to keep scoring goals," he concluded, promising more effort and goals for the team.
