The first day of football so far in 2021 has just concluded and we already have a strong candidate to win the Puskas .
This is Mattia Zaccagni , forward of Hellas Verona , who scored a very beautiful goal in the duel against Spezia , corresponding to the match day 15 of the Series A .
The execution was impeccable. After a play by the right wing, which consisted of long passes and filtered touches, Zaccagni finished a first intention center that fell in his area, at the height of the penalty spot. Mattia received without a goal angle and with the defender’s mark on top, so took advantage of the momentum of the ball to control it with his chest, adjust it to finish off the Chilean and place the ball in the bottom corner of the goal. The goalkeeper could do nothing to prevent the only goal of the match, that of the three points for Verona.
