“It is very nice to score both goals and help the team win. “I think we had a great match and luckily we were able to win,” Sora said, “I think it’s because of the two goals, yes, it’s the match I played the best in.”
Surah II’s goal was a genius, A free kick hit his left foot and the opposing goalkeeper did not move.
“I always like to take care of the stopped balls. The old man always told me that the players who tackle the stopped balls are important to the team. So I always try to run after training to keep improving this aspect.”
Previously under former coach Lucas Pocineri, Sora played more minutes, but everything changed with the arrival of Julio Falcioni last January. The left-handed barely entered Falcioni’s plans until last month. There is no doubt that Surat seizes its opportunity to impress the coach.
“I actually started because my teammates were unfortunately injured. Falcioni called me, he gave me confidence too, he told me to be calm and fortunately my colleagues gave me a lot of calm I was able to play several games in a row, which gave me a lot of confidence and luckily things went well. Surat noted that continuity is very important for any player.”

In fact, he realizes that he needs to keep adding games and show that he’s worth a call.
