Carlos Villanueva News: Busy defensively in draw

Written by RotoWire Staff

Published on February 3, 2026

Villanueva created one chance and made two tackles, five clearances and one interception during Sunday's scoreless draw against Pachuca.

Villanueva filled in for injured Diego Reyes (tear) and made the most of his rare start by staying heavily involved defensively, repeatedly breaking up play and keeping Queretaro stable in deeper phases. Given his usual rotational role, he projects as a matchup‑driven streamer whose fantasy value spikes mainly when injuries or suspensions open the door for extended minutes.
