Erik Lira News: Decent impact Tuesday
Lira recorded one tackle (one won) in Tuesday's 2-0 victory against Ecuador.
Lira returned to action in a central midfield spot after being rested in the final group-stage clash. He didn't stand out in a single aspect of the game, making more of a balanced contribution around the field. Lira has done a good job as his team's midfield shield and ball distributor, averaging 38.3 accurate passes, 1.0 chances created and 1.7 tackles per game so far. However, he may still be involved in a rotation with Edson Alvarez at some point in the final rounds.
