Liverpool forward leads the way at the Copa America in an important individual performance

Uruguayan national team and Liverpool forward Darwin Núñez leads the Copa America in a crucial individual statistic.

According to WhoScored, Núñez has completed more successful dribbles (10) than any other player in the 2024 Copa America so far.

The Uruguayan team has won all three of their group matches, advancing to the tournament's playoffs from the top spot. Their opponent in the first playoff match is yet to be determined.

In the three group stage matches, the Liverpool striker has scored two goals. It was previously reported that Darwin matched a scoring record for the Uruguayan national team. No Uruguayan player had reached such a milestone since the legendary Héctor Scarone did so in 1927-1928.

Overall, Núñez has 38 goals in 52 matches for the Uruguayan national team.
