Your best match
"The Winter Cup semi-final that we lost on penalties to Asti this year. It was a beautiful game. We we winning 5-4 and they equalised with 12 seconds until the final whistle. Such a shame. "

Your biggest regret
"I don’t have any. I'm still young."

Your favourite skill
"Dribbling with the sole because it is a fundamental characteristic of futsal.”

The AGLA model that enhances this move
"The CONDOR because they have a great feel."

The most effective type of defence
"Zonal because it helps you recuperate possession more and, as a pivot, allows me to remain very high up the court."

Best attacking system
"The 3-1 formation because you play with a pivot."

What do you eat before a match
“If we play in the afternoon I eat pasta and a piece of chicken. If we play in the evening I prefer boiled potatoes , tuna and vegetables."

Your strongest opponent
"The Brazilian Falcao. I played against him in my country and he is a phenomenon in all the fundamental skills."

Favourite team-mate
"I say the three from Luparense; Honorio , Merlim and Canal. I've never played with guys so strong. Everyone is very good in the fundamentals of futsal ."

A coaching characteristic
"Being able to read the game and know how to adapt during the whole forty minutes."

Favourite shoes
"The CONDOR , they are really good."

Favourite ball
" The BOLA FUTSAL OFFICIAL. A ball that has no equal. Even in Brazil I've never played with a ball like it."

Favourite clothing
"The match shirt because it is made with an exceptional fabric."

The CONDOR model is equipped with the new technological development AGLA GRIP CONTROL, for absolute grip on court. The upper is made of a nubuck and breathable canvas. The sole uses a new concept of an eva foam ANTI-SHOCK insert, a system designed by AGLA to prevent tendinitis and micro trauma that over time can damage ligaments. It has the brand logo with breathable rubber. The model CONDOR is designed for fast and technical players who like to take to the court with light shoes. HONORIO, FORTINO and DE LUCA have worn the CONDOR model when they were crowned champions at the last Futsal Euro Championships in Antwerp.
