Nico Paz stars: Almost scores bicycle kick, assists in Como win | OneFootball

Nico Paz played another great match with Como, who won 2-0 against Sassuolo this Friday, as part of the 13th round of Serie A. There, the Argentine almost scored an amazing bicycle kick goal and provided the assist for the second goal.

It was at the 38th minute, with the score already 1-0 thanks to a goal by Anastasios Douvikas, when the 21-year-old received a high and slow cross and struck a powerful bicycle kick towards the goal, which was well saved by the opposing goalkeeper, Arijanet Muric, who stretched out and sent it to the corner.

And although he couldn't score, he did assist for the goal that sealed the match. At the 52nd minute, he turned near the midfield and delivered a great aerial pass to Alberto Moreno, who entered the area and headed the ball. Goalkeeper Muric tried to anticipate and punch it away, but his attempt was poor, and the ball bounced off his hands and ended up in the goal.

With this new assist, Paz reached an impressive milestone in his 13th match this season: he is the second player among the five major European leagues to have at least five goals and five assists. The other? Michael Olise from Bayern Munich, who has 6G and 6A.
