The Brazilian Astro has picked his game up in the last month and change, especially in league play scoring 3 goals in the last 5 games* which means he’s up to 5 for now. Now, his goal scoring ability is not why he is so special, he creates opportunities from 1-on-1 plays to team scoring with flashy passing.
