'kun'-aguero-returns-to-the-courts-as-a-guest-star-of-barcelona-of-ecuador


One year after retiring from football due to a heart problem, Argentine Sergio ‘Kun’ Agüero returned to the pitch this Saturday to play a friendly match with Ecuadorian Barcelona on the club’s Yellow Night.

The ‘Kun’ played 18 minutes of the match between Barcelona and Mushuc Runa, and which represented the club’s sample to its fans ahead of the new season.

Agüero’s participation in La Noche Amarilla was initially conditioned by a muscle injury he suffered a few days ago during the Kings League.

Although the Argentine was on the field for a short time, it was enough to captivate the Barcelona fans. In fact, the team’s board of directors gave him the opportunity to be an honorary member.

Agüero was also present at a dinner with the members and fans of the Ecuadorian team, and assured that he enjoys soccer much more now than when he played it professionally.

In fact, he liked his experience with Barcelona so much that he promised to return to the Yellow Night next year.

The only goal of the match between Barcelona and Mushuc Runa fell as a result of a great match between Gabriel Cortez, Damián ‘Kitu’ Díaz and the Uruguayan Rodríguez, who took advantage of a rebound from goalkeeper Adonis Pavón.

Some 40,000 fans attended the Yellow Night, in which Barcelona presented its figures for the 2023 season, in which it will once again play the Copa Libertadores.

Among the figures who shared the field with ‘Kun’ Agüero were his compatriots such as goalkeeper Javier Burrai, attackers Christian Ortiz and Jonatan Bauman; the Uruguayans Bruno Piñatares and Agustín Rodríguez and the Brazilian midfielder Leonai Souza.
