The Portuguese striker has already scored 10 times in Serie B, the last very heavy one in Como: “I’m a team player, I know that every ball is sacred. And at the spot I know how not to get confused”
The Ascoli team that collected five points in the trio of Parma away-Bari at home-Como away has the face of Pedro Mendes. Portuguese, 24 years old, center forward, scored 10 of Picchio’s 22 goals in 22 matchdays. His goring against Sinigaglia marked a masterful match in terms of coherence and tactical application. On Sunday the Bianconeri await Südtirol to give continuity to their race towards salvation in Serie B. “In Parma we played without fear after having studied it. Against Bari we didn’t start well, but at home we give more and in the second half it was a “another match and it was 2-2. In Como we won 2-0. They say that the expulsion (of Odenthal, ed), but it came while we were on attack, because we were attacking. And yes, we scored on two inactive balls, but they train too.”
