After scoring two very good and very important goals against Torino and Juventus, Alphadjo Cisse repeated the feat in every respect with Italy Under-21. In the crucial match in Yerevan against Armenia, the penultimate game in the Euro U21 qualifying group, with next summer's tournament at stake, Cisse scored a beautiful and decisive goal in the 95th minute: the Rossoneri player's strike allowed the Azzurrini to break the deadlock in a match that had seemed cursed and keep their hopes of direct qualification alive.
Thanks to his last-gasp goal, young talent Alphadjo Cisse is making headlines with the Italy U21 shirt too, having done so in recent weeks in Milan colours. This morning, 'Corriere dello Sport' chose the headline:
"Cisse goal, makes the team happy."
The subheading reads: "Koleosho misses a penalty but the 'Azzurrini' find a win in stoppage time." It then adds: "95th-minute winner in Armenia: Baldini and his side have everything to play for against Poland." To qualify directly for the European Championship, they need a win by a two-goal margin. But with this Cisse, anything is possible.
