It's a kind of magic

Naturns striker Peter Mair has a special gift: He manages to combine the typically blocky Mario Gomez striker character and the agile and technically adept playmaker attacker, which football experts like to call the "false nine", into one type. On the one hand, the goal scorer shields the playing equipment just as skillfully as an umbrella protects the hair of a freshly coiffed vain lady in the event of bucket-like rainfall, and on the other hand, he treats the ball with such tender caresses that even the fluffiest kittens would probably sneak away with their heads bowed in jealousy. On Monday, Mair, who has been nicknamed "Magic" for years, transformed the soccer field in Naturns into his personal amphitheater, where he brought the audience into a constant state of applause with his magic trick show. Not only did he traumatize his opponents with feints, sugar passes, banana crosses and football tricks. Things finally seemed to be working again with the goals. Whether from the turn, from a free kick or, as the highlight of the day, from 40 meters with a lob - the ball only did what its magician told it to do. And all of this in just 17 minutes. Of course in a flawless manner. And, mind you, without the use of a magic wand.

Don't mess with Marco Marco Zentil is a defender of the caliber that a striker never likes to play against. Someone who has no problems opting for option two when it comes to the defensive men's crucial question of "ball or ankle". On Saturday evening, the Alense attackers felt this in an unpleasant way. Shortly before the end of the game, he knocked down his opponent in Gennaro Gattuso style, earning his second yellow card and catapulting himself into the locker room early. The defender from Caorle is living up to his name as a striker terror, as it was his third dismissal of the current season. Small consolation: Christian Parise (Eppan) and Paolo Valenti (Comano) also had to take a shower early three times.

Fast, faster, Daniel Volgger Actually, the encounter between Pfalzen and Schabs in the 1st Amateur League Group B was a game for the "tired kick" category: poor in goals, even poorer in highlights and both teams didn't exactly cover each other with glory in terms of play. The fact that this game will still be remembered by everyone involved was due to a man who goes by the name Daniel Volgger. The Palatinate striker needed just 15 seconds to head his team into the lead - even though the opposing team had a pass. How is that supposed to work? Very simple: quick pressing, winning the ball, shifting to the side, cross and goal. The fact that Volgger maneuvered the pill onto the Internet with as much ease as he puts a letter in the mailbox on a normal Tuesday morning is only mentioned in passing.
