Oliveira Makes Instant Impact
Ricardo Oliveira has made an instant impact with Real Zaragoza after scoring twice in the Aragónese side's friendly win over S.D. Huesca at the weekend.
The Brazilian striker has only enjoyed five training sessions with his new team-mates since joining the club on loan for a year from AC Milan.
After a difficult year in Italy, however, he recovered his smile with two clinical strikes in the pre-season encounter against the Segunda B team on Sunday.
Sergio GarcÃa staked his claim for a place in the team next term with two goals of his own during hte opening 45 minutes, but it was Oliveira's appearance that lifted Zaragoza.
Having come on at the start of the second half, Oliveira had to wait only 14 minutes before guiding in his first of the evening and then capped a strong display by netting a second in the 89th minute.
The 27-year-old arrived from Milan to replace Ewerthon, who opted to return to the Bundesliga to join champions VfB Stuttgart this summer.
Coach VÃctor Fernández also gave Francisco Pavón a run out as he continues to build for the new season, that will see Zaragoza participate in the UEFA Cup.
Following their stay in Huesca, Zaragoza will remain in Andalucia for their next three friendlies as they compete in the Trofeo Colombino against Parma and Recre, before taking part in the Trofeo Ramón de Carranza against Cádiz next month.
As Porty would say 'Sell Kaka, buy Oli back'!!!
Naah...he already belongs to us.
