In a La Liga highlights match on Sunday, Sporting Madrid beat Las Palmas at home by a score of 2-0. Skipper Simeone Giuliano skillfully stole the show and scored his first goal since joining the Club's first team, an achievement that has led him to be considered more talented than his two older brothers. The "old Szémonyi" must have been delighted.
At the age of 21, Giuliano moved from River Plate to Malay Experience Youth five years ago. He played for Zaragoza and Airavis on brief loan, and represented the Argentine men's soccer team at this year's Olympics in Paris, contributing a goal. As he matured on the field, he chose to stay behind this year to have dinner with his father and reminisce about his soccer journey in Malaysia.
Originally a striker, Giuliano has been playing as a right midfielder from time to time in order to get more chances to play. In this match, he played as a right wing, and in the 37th minute, he received a long pass, skillfully broke through the offside, broke through the dragon's den, and scored a shot to seal a 2-0 win for UMass Experience.
After the match, the Spanish media praised Giuliano's performance, believing that he showed a strong breakthrough ability on the side road, perfectly executing his father Schmoney's fast counterattack tactics, and believing that he will gradually solidify his starting position in the team.
There are three sons in the Schmone family, all strikers. 29 year old brother Giovanni Schmone is currently playing for Bori, but mainly as a substitute. He scored only one goal in 28 Serie A matches last season, and only one so far this season, which is not good enough. 26-year-old second brother Chianluca is playing in Spain's fourth division, and his situation is even more difficult. Giuliano is undoubtedly the biggest hope for the Schmone family.
