Nico Paz, aiming to represent Argentina in the upcoming World Cup in the USA, Mexico, and Canada, is making a strong case for selection by scoring goals and showcasing his skills. In a recent Serie A match at San Siro, Paz capitalized on a blunder by AC Milan's goalkeeper Mike Maignan, who mistakenly passed the ball to him, allowing Paz to score the opening goal for Como. This performance adds to his impressive tally of 10 goals and 6 assists in 28 matches this season.

Prior to this match, Paz had already made a name for himself by scoring a decisive goal against Fiorentina in the Coppa Italia, helping Como secure a comeback victory and a spot in the quarter-finals. His earlier goal against Milan during a previous encounter also highlighted his growing importance to the team, even though they ultimately lost that match. With consistent performances like these, Paz is aiming to secure his place in the national squad under coach Lionel Scaloni.

Paz's accomplishments not only reflect his talent but also the rising stature of Como in Serie A, as they continue to challenge established teams. His contributions on the field are vital for Como's aspirations in the league as they seek to improve their standing and achieve significant victories against top opponents like AC Milan.
