It just keeps getting better for Fiorentina’s Giovanni Simeone and the 23-year-old striker’s impressive start to the Serie A season has carried into the international break as he scored his first goal for Argentina on Saturday.
Simeone has a goal and an assist to his name in 180 minutes of Serie A action for La Viola this season and was rewarded for his form with an Argentina debut against Guatemala, in which he justified his selection by finding the net.
