Pablo Piatti
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pablo Piatti (b. La Carlota, Córdoba province 31 March 1989) is an Argentine football (soccer) player with Estudiantes de La Plata.
The diminutive (163 cm, 55 kg) player made the headlines when coach Diego Simeone gave him his first opportunity against Newell's Old Boys on 18/Nov/2006. Piatti scored the winning goal (2-1 final score) deep into injury time, and became one of the heroes of Estudiantes' championship-winning team.
Piatti made the starting eleven in the 2007 Clausura tournament, alternating between the left-insider and center-forward positions, in tandem with José Luis Calderón, complementing fellow midfielders Juan Sebastián Verón and José Ernesto Sosa. As of the seventh day of that tournament, Piatti has scored twice for the team and won accolades from his coach and the press.
