A Stefan Scepovic, that this Sunday he has the opportunity to dispute his first minutes With Málaga CF, it suits him good to debut at home. Especially on Spanish soil, he opened fire with his first goals the first time he played in El Molinón with the Sporting and, later, at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez with the Getafe. The Serbian, in his presentation, already warned that he is in the “best years” of a career that had good chapters in Spanish football. Back, and at the expense of whether or not Pellicer decides to give him the alternative (you are already formally enrolled) in front of a Tenerife on the rise, he waits with the trigger ready with the memory of those two scoring premieres at home. One of them, being the executioner of Malaga.
Let’s go in parts, let’s start with your first official match in Spain. With Sporting, after a somewhat erratic preseason in which he only saw the door on two occasions, he threw the door down and won over his new fans by giving victory to the rojiblanco team in the first day of 13/14. In El Molinón, and with Real Madrid Castilla as a rival (with ex-Malaguistas Diego Llorente and José Rodríguez as starters), he scored the winning goal in minute 22 taking advantage of a López Garai service. Scepovic’s first goal in a stratospheric season in which he accumulated 23 goals and nine assists that, however, they were not worth to Sporting to obtain the promotion – it fell in the semifinals of the play off before Las Palmas-.
The striker set course (after payment of 2.5 million euros) to one of the two greats of Scottish football: Celtic of Glasgow. One season he was, scoring six goals and returning on loan Getafe in First Division. In his first home game, he scored a goal. And, curiously, against Malaga (watch bottom video). It was the fourth day of the championship and two minutes later, in a defensive inattention from Malaga, Scepovic nodded academically a Víctor Rodríguez center making it impossible to stretch Stones. A goal that defines him, a goal that he dreams of repeating in another debut in his new home.
