    WEDNESDAY, MAY 25, 2016 SPORTS Extras Two-goal Leonardo paints Victory out of the picture SEOUL: Brazilian maestro Leonardo bagged a classic brace as Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors beat Melbourne Victory 2-1 to reach the AFC Champions League quar- ter-finals yesterday. The dead-ball specialist, who buried a superb free kick in last week’s last 16 first leg, fired home another in the opening half before scoring a sizzling second goal after the break. Besart Berisha gave Victory hope but his late strike on 84 minutes proved to be the visitors’ best moment as they went down 3-2 on aggregate, after the first leg finished 1-1. The South Korean team, Asian champions in 2006, are now into their seventh Champions League quarter- final in 10 appearances, while Kevin Muscat’s Victory remain in search of their first. Veteran striker Archie Thompson nearly opened the scoring in what would turn out to be his last game for Victory, but his fourth- minute double header-and-shot were scrambled away. Leonardo fizzed a free kick into the side-netting on 19 minutes before he recalibrated and was bang on target from a tight angle 10 minutes later. From the left edge of the box, the midfielder bent his place-kick past the two-man wall and into the far top corner, defying goalkeeper Lawrence Thomas’s attempted fin- gertip save.

A cura di MASSIMO LUCCHESI A tu per tu con Cesare Prandelli e Gabriele Pin, allenatori affermati ma anche e soprattutto maestri di calcio. Una delle società italiane tradizionalmente più attente al S.G. è senza ombra di dubbio l’Atalanta, capace negli anni di crescere e lanciare giocatori del calibro di Roberto Donadoni, Gianpaolo Bellini, Alessio Tacchinardi, Domenico Morfeo, Tomas Locatelli, Ivan Pelizzoli, i gemelli Cristian e Damiano Zenoni, Marco Zanchi, Luciano Zauri, Paolo Foglio, Cesare Natali, Michele Canini, Massimo Donati, Alex Pinardi, Riccardo Montolivo, Marco Motta, Samuele Dalla Bona, Rolando Bianchi, Filippo Carobbio, Fausto Rossini, Andrea Lazzari, Simone Padoin, Giampaolo Pazzini, Inácio Piá, Inácio Joelson, Massimo Mutarelli, Marino Defendi, Tiberio Guarente, Daniele Capelli fino ad arrivare ad Andrea Consigli. E proprio nel settore giovanile bergamasco ha maturato le prime esperienze da allenatore Cesare Prandelli che ha, dato prestigioso ma non fondamentale, vinto tutto con i giovani nerazzurri (scudetto con allievi e primavera, torneo di Viareggio nel 93) e che nel proseguo della sua carriera da allenatore di 1° squadra ha valorizzato e lanciato definitivamente ad altissimi livelli campioni divenuti popolarissimi come Frey, Mutu, Adriano, Gilardino, Montolivo, Kuzmanovic. Per tutte queste ragioni ci siamo rivolti proprio a Prandelli che, con la disponibilità e le signorilità che lo contraddistingue da sempre, ci ha concesso una intervista nella quale approfondire gli aspetti legati all’acquisizione, allo sviluppo ed al perfezionamento delle abilità individuali nel settore giovanile.
