Robinio Vaz News: Impactful off bench

Vaz scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Saturday's 5-2 win against Paris FC. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 88th minute.

Vaz replaced Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in the 74th minute and immediately impacted the game by drawing a penalty, though Mason Greenwood missed the kick. The young striker then iced the match in stoppage time with a top-corner finish from the right side after being well assisted by the winger. Vaz also forced Paris FC back with his direct runs and work rate, ending his brilliant 16-minute shift with one tackle and one interception. He is expected to keep that super-sub role this season and might break out under coach Roberto de Zerbi, who has praised him since last season.
