F. Quagliarella repeated an achievement unseen since C. Vieri's times

Experiencing his second youth on the football field, Genoa's "Sampdoria" forward Fabio Quagliarella distinguished himself with an achievement unseen since the legendary forward Christiano Vieri's time. The 35-year-old Italian managed to score goals in eight consecutive matches in the "Serie A" championship, with the latest victim being "Chievo" club last Wednesday (2:0). The last time such a record appeared on the leaderboard was in 2002 when C. Vieri wreaked havoc within Milan's "Inter" ranks. This season, F. Quagliarella has already scored 11 goals in the Italian championship and delivered 5 assists. It is not surprising that the team recently signed a new contract with him.
