Achik dey find im first goal for Salernitana for Arechi Stadium

Na eight days ago wey Ismail Achik score dat crucial goal for Salernitana for Crotone match, and di game dey heart-pounding. Di goal mean plenty for Achik because im family don stay for nearby Cutro for many years, and di emotions wey im feel dat day go remain for im heart forever. Now, di Moroccan wey come from Calabria get another emotion wey e wan feel: to score im first goal for Arechi Stadium, maybe even one wey go bring three points for im team.

For Arechi Stadium, Achik don show say na assist man e be, like di one wey e give Facundo Lescano for match against Latina on March 8. But as finisher, im still dey wait to shine. Im best chance come last January when Salernitana get penalty for match against Cosenza. Achik wan take di penalty, but after VAR check, na Franco Ferrari take di kick. Vettorel guess di angle well and save di shot with confidence.

For dis season, di former Bari and Cerignola winger get ten assists and two goals, and both goals na for away matches for Siracusa and Crotone. If we follow di saying wey talk say ‘good things come in threes’, maybe another old adage fit work: there is always a first time for everything. Dis moment fit be di right time for Achik to score im first home goal for di granata jersey.

Achik don find consistency for playing time since Serse Cosmi come be Salernitana coach. Under di new coach, Achik start for matches against Catania, Latina, and Crotone. For away derby for Caserta, im come for second half, and coincidentally, na di only match wey Salernitana under Cosmi no get points. Achik don play as winger, midfielder, and second striker, adding plenty to im technical repertoire depending on team need.

For Crotone, im play as attacking winger for first half for 4-3-2-1 formation, but for second half, im support Lescano for Cosmi’s 3-5-2. For dis more forward role, im score di decisive goal with precise right-foot shot after through ball from Gyabuaa. Na im first crucial goal for Salernitana, because for Siracusa, im score one gem from distance wey make football aesthetes happy, but no bring points for Salernitana for Sicily.

For tonight match against Team Altamura wey Mangia dey coach, Salernitana dey chase dia third consecutive victory to remain alone for third place. Achik go start for third game straight. For first-leg match, di number seven wey born for Casablanca for 2000 instrumental to overturn result when Salernitana dey trail by goal. With Achik, dem switch to more attacking formation to seek width and deliver more balls from flanks to forwards.

Achik dey elusive and quick, always make impact for one-on-one situations with dribbles and changes of direction wey fit disorganize opposing defenses. Cosmi know say e fit expect decisive play from am anytime and go trust am again tonight. For Achik, e look like im third consecutive start and return to winger position, but with freedom to try dey more present for goal area.

Dribbling and crosses, sprints and feints na essential ingredients for classic winger repertoire, but sometimes at di expense of effectiveness and precision when chance to shoot come. Na here Achik need to improve to become more decisive and impactful player. As im dey increasingly regular starter under Cosmi’s Salernitana, di Moroccan fit now make di leap and find key to further personal growth wey fit help Salernitana spread im wings.

With winger like Achik increasingly central to Salernitana tactical plans, maybe dis goal fit become less difficult to reach. Di team dey rely on im skills as dem face Team Altamura tonight, and all eyes dey on di Moroccan to see if e fit break im home goal drought and help Salernitana secure important victory for dia league campaign.
