The Sub-13 International Carnaval Cup left many standout names, but one of the players who attracted the most attention throughout the tournament was Dincoll Sneyk. The Real Betis striker became one of the great sensations of the championship, delivering decisive performances and establishing himself as one of the most differential attacking references of the competition.

Named best centre forward, Dincoll finished the tournament with 6 goals, becoming the top scorer of the Carnaval Cup. His constant offensive drive, mobility and ability to create danger against any defence made him a very uncomfortable striker to face, always active and with a sharp eye for goal.

Betis’ number 7, the player everyone watched

Wearing the number ‘7’ shirt and boasting a strong physical presence for his age, the Verdiblanco forward was a constant threat in the final third. His ability to attack space, press without the ball and compete in every action reflected a competitive mentality well beyond his age group, playing a key role in Betis’ path to the final against Zaragoza.

The Andalusian side reached the grand final of the tournament, where they eventually lost to Zaragoza in a penalty shootout after a very balanced match. Despite the defeat, Dincoll delivered an outstanding performance, leading the attacking line and maintaining his competitive impact until the very last minute in a high-demand scenario.

Physicality, quality and joy on the pitch

The interview with the striker was conducted in the lead-up to the final, where he already showed his ambition. “We wanted to win the tournament to celebrate it with my teammates,” he said naturally. He also spoke about his football reference: “My idol is Cucho Hernández, I love how he plays and he is also Colombian like me,” a statement that directly connects with his identity and style.

At just 13 years old and with Colombian roots, Dincoll represents that characteristic profile of Colombian forwards: grit, joy and passion for the game, where talent is often combined with flair and strong competitive character. “I’ve been playing since I was 3. I grew up in the south but I have Colombian origins and my parents taught me how to play,” explained the young striker, whose story blends early development, football culture and a personality that has already left a mark on the International Carnaval Cup.
