Goal hungry Fernandao
His 31 goals in the league show what a great goal scorer he is. Fernandao has shown his true character this season after being dogged by injuries the previous season.
‘In crescendo’
He came to Barca Mobicat with the clear ambition that he wanted to be a
lethal pivot, but he was dogged by injuries during his first season. This season, with 31 league
goals, Fernandao has finally shown what a great goal scorer he is, ending up just four off the top
scorer in the league: “I’ve enjoyed this season a lot more. During the holidays I
worked a lot on my fitness. I’m now satisfied to have made the national side and played in
the World Championship. It’s been incredible”.
Great first game
His first league game couldn’t have been better; he scored twice against
Benicarlo. He went on to get four against Pinto and a hat-trick against his former club Playa. His
31 goals left him just four away from league top-scorer Wilde of El Pozo Murcia.
Good and bad side of the Cup
In the Spanish Cup, Fernandao saw the good and bad side of cup
competitions. He was decisive in the semi-final against Benicarlo, winning the game for Barca in
the last minute: “That was a great game. We were down, but we kept on fighting and pulled the
game back”.
But the Brazilian pivot saw the worst in the final, when he missed a clear chance just after
having made the score all square: “That was the worst moment of the season, not scoring.
It’s hard for me to forget it”.
Tough final
Another difficult moment to forget was the play-off and being eliminated
at the hands of Pinto: “I don’t know what happened. We didn’t play badly, but we
just didn’t do enough to beat Pinto”.
Despite this, Fernandao thinks it’s been a good season: “We need to take two
steps forward. We’ve had a good season. We know the difficulties we’ll face. We need to
learn”.
