Kendry Páez, Ecuador midfielder, became the youngest Copa América scorer of the 21st century this Wednesday, converting, at just 17 years and 53 days, the penalty that gave the team a momentary 2-0 lead against Jamaica to Las Vegas.

Páez, who last Saturday against Venezuela became the youngest debutant in the Copa América this century, added a new record to his young career this Wednesday.

The Independiente del Valle player converted a maximum penalty with his left foot in added time in the first half of the match Ecuador was playing at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.

Páez capitalized on the first penalty scored in the tournament, which had recorded nineteen goals up until then. EFE
