ตอน 318: A Missile to Reignite the Spirit of the Team

Alessandro Matri had not had many opportunities to showcase his talent as a striker while playing for AC Milan over the past year. He'd even become a target of abuse from fans after only playing six times for the Rossoneri and only managing to score once during the entire year. He'd been the true definition of a signing-gone-wrong for the case of the Italian giants.

But since he'd joined a new team - Fiorentina on loan, he was determined to turn over a new leaf. He was hungry to play and to score a lot of goals. He yearned to prove himself as an incredible striker so as to shut the blubber mouths of his critics and, of course, get another call up to the Italian squad.

Thus, he couldn't afford to waste any chance while on the pitch.

So, after receiving the ball from Neto, Fiorentina's keeper, the first thought in his mind was on how to advance the counterattack as quickly and as efficiently as possible.
