RADAMEL FALCAO

Falcao arrived from FC Porto with a reputation as a formidable header of the ball, but at Atlético de Madrid he showcased a whole repertoire of finishes with both his left and right foot, as well as producing genuine masterclasses in the two European finals he played, in which he scored five goals. Because Falcao was not only a clinical finisher, but also a player who created many of his own goals. He scored a legendary five-goal haul against Deportivo de La Coruña at the Calderón and formed a lethal attacking partnership with Diego Costa. Falcao’s spell at Atleti was brief, but it left unforgettable memories for the fans, who regard him as one of the great goalscorers in the club’s history.
