Both of them David Nogueira's — 8.79
2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.79, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

At 18 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Daniel Xavier steps up from the CSA academy
