42-year-old Martin Silva is in goal again in the Libertadores match

An unexpected situation has arisen at Paraguay's "Libertad" football club. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

Due to the injury of the team's main goalkeeper Rodrigo Morinigo, the club's management quickly made a decision to bring back 42-year-old Martin Silva to the field. Martin Silva had ended his career last autumn and had retired from goalkeeping.

However, due to the current situation, he was forced to return to action. Martin Silva recently guarded the team's goal in a match within the Paraguayan championship.

Now, he is awaiting an even more important and responsible match. The club will face Argentina's famous "River Plate" team in the Copa Libertadores competition.

This game will take place on the evening of August 14, local time. In Uzbekistan, this match will start the next morning.

Martin Silva has previously defended the goal of the Uruguay national team. He won the Copa America with the Uruguay national team in 2011.

Thus, the experienced goalkeeper is ready to help his team once again before an important match.
