Sunday, October 14, 2012. A date to remember for Hachim Mastour, who came from Reggio Emilia to play his first official game in the Rossoneri shirt. A debut awaited by all, leaders of AC Milan in the first place, who bet this guy (born in 1998), as probably the best buy of the summer ACMilan.
Albinoleffe opponent, on an afternoon that many onlookers attending the game, a moment hard to forget and that in a few years, they probably will remember as their stories in sports.
Final result was 7-0 for ACMilan, with two goals of our new acquisition, who wore a jersey number 7 (the same of Sheva) for his prophetic future. However, there were the two goals (though of highest quality) to arouse the attention and wonder of those present.
Mastour has mainly played on the left side, with the possibility of returning to have the ball on the right foot, its favourite foot. It was impressive to observe the mastery of the ball control of the boy, with the ball always attached to the feet. Fantastic also the control of the body, always balanced, so is setted to always be coordinated in the shooting and dribbling, as well as in football to search for the exchange of game.
The thing that makes the game more surprising is definitely the ease with which Hachim makes the more difficult plays. The spontaneity and naturalness are skills that cannot be learned, you have them from birth.
For the first goal can be seen by everybody the ease with which the boy attempts a jump shot with an incredible accuracy, in the traffic of the penalty area, where the 90% of the boys of that age would think only to do a strong kick to the goal.
In the second goal, you can admire his coldness and dribbling skilss, with whom run into the area and beat the goalkeeper with a superfine lob.
Obviously it’s important not to invoke his first game such as that of consecration, as there are still many tactical situations to improve and many "hard bread" for his final growth.
Let's not also forget that the boy is only 14 years old and would be dangerous to load him with too many responsibilities.
Hachim must first complete its growth as a boy, toghether with all the others of his age, with the same school problems, achieving a complete character maturation. After all this factors cames the football. Everything will depend on him, his family and ACMilan. We’ll wait and see.
