12.05. Aloisi was
rewarded for his saving goal last week with a place in the starting line up for
the last game of the season against neighbours Alavés. He couldn't find
his scoring boots this time as his team lost 0-1, but ended his first season in
Spain as the team's top scorer with nine goals, not a bad haul.
05.05. Was the hero
in the derby game at Bilbao, coming on as substitute early in the first half
and scoring the equaliser in the last minute of the game. The point means
Osasuna are safe from relegation for another season.
28.04. A vital 3-2
win over relegation rivals Las Palmas took Osasuna out of the bottom three.
Aloisi was a tactical substitute, coming on in the last minute for Iván
Rosado.
21.04. Didn't get a
game at Valladolid, spending the whole 90 minutes on the bench even though his
team were losing, and Osasuna drop into the relegation zone.
14.04. A great win
for Osasuna against Real Madrid, although Aloisi was once again substitute.
Came on for the last five minutes with his side 3-1 up.
07.04. Dropped
again for the match at Betis, coming on for the last five minutes for
Iván Rosado, who took his place in the starting line up. Match drawn
0-0.
31.03. Back in the
side for the game against Málaga after scoring the week before. However
his side lost 0-2 to move even closer to the relegation zone.
24.03. With his
team struggling near the relegation zone, Aloisi was dropped for the first time
since late October for the game at Valencia. Came on with half an hour to go
for Iván Rosado and headed an equaliser five minutes from the end.
However Valencia scraped a winner in injury time.
17.03. Scored an
injury time penalty against Deportivo, his first goal in nine games. However
only after Diego Tristán had hit a hat-trick.
10.03. Gave away a
penalty in the first half at Mallorca, but helped Gancedo score the equalising
goal in the second before Mallorca recovered to win. Once again substituted ten
minutes from the end, this time by Sabino.
03.03. Started
again in the local derby against Real Sociedad, and had a hand in his side's
goal in the second half. Replaced by Armentano seven minutes from the end.
24.02. Played the
full 90 minutes at Tenerife, but his side fell to their first defeat of 2002.
Had a hand in his side's goal, playing the ball into the area for Alexis to
head past his own keeper.
17.02. Set up the
equalising goal for Sabino in the game against Espanyol. Substituted a quarter
of an hour from the end by Armentano.
10.02. Played the
full match in the Wednesday night scoreless draw at Sevilla, despite having
five stitches put in a cut during the game. Caused some problems in the first
half. Started the weekend game against Rayo which his team won 1-0, being
replaced by Rivero near the end once they were in front.
03.02. Once again
completed the game against Zaragoza, a boring 0-0 draw with virtually no goal
chances.
27.01. Played all
but the last minute of the match in the victory at Barcelona, setting up the
only goal for Alfredo near the end.
20.01. Scored the
opening goal with two minutes of kick off against Villarreal, and had another
ruled out for a borderline offside two minutes later. Was a constant nightmare
for the Villarreal defence, although in the end they drew 2-2. Replaced by
Armentano six minutes from the end.
13.01. Started the
game at Celta, being replaced by Armentano near the end as his manager used up
time with the scores level.
06.01. The player
was the innocent centre of the false guarantee scandal which exploded over the
two week break. Apparently Coventry City had insisted on bank guarantees to
cover his transfer, and Osasuna management falsified the guarantees when they
were turned down by their bank. Coventry could insist on his return, although
they have not done so for the time being. On the football front, played all but
the last minute in their victory away against local rivals Alavés.
23.12. played the
first 75 minutes in the local derby with Athletic Bilbao, which Osasuna lost
0-1. Was replaced by Iván Rosado soon after Bilbao scored.
16.12. Another
start in the match at Las Palmas, being substituted by Sabino with an hour gone
and his team winning. They drew 1-1 in the end.
09.12. Started the
game against Valladolid, coming up against a superb Ricardo. His side won in
the end though by a single Armentano goal.
02.12. Didn't get
back in time to be included in the cup squad, which his team lost to Figueres.
Returned to the side for the league match at Real Madrid, scoring with five
minutes to go and almost snatching a point with a last minute effort which
Casillas saved.
25.11. Stayed with
the Australia squad, but didn't get a game in the end as they were knocked out
by Uruguay.
18.11. Still with
the Socceroos, training for the crucial double header against
Uruguay.
11.11. On
international duty for Australia's home friendly game against France, coming on
in as substitute and unlucky not to win a penalty near the end.
04.11. Started
again at Deportivo La Coruña and put his team ahead with an early goal
after getting a return pass from Gancedo. Then the wheels fell off and Depor
scored five.
28.10. Started his
first match of the season against Mallorca and scored the opening goal in their
four nil victory.
21.10. Non-playing
substitute in the away game at Real Sociedad.
14.10. Cup tie
postponed to 7th November, so no midweek match. Came on as substitute again in
the game against Tenerife, hitting the bar in one incident and missing a sitter
near the end.
07.10. Didn't get
on the field in the game at Rayo. Came on as second half substitute at Espanyol
midweek and got the equalising goal, following up after Argensó saved
his penalty kick.
30.09. Substitute
again in the home game against Sevilla, coming on for the last 20 minutes and
getting the only goal of the match from a header. This was the first goal
scored by an Osasuna player this season.
23.09. On the bench
for the game against Barcelona, coming on for Lekumberri halfway through the
second half. Didn't get on the field for the game at Zaragoza.
15.09. Came in with
a reputation as a goalscorer, but will have to compete with Iván Rosado
for the striker position. Made his debut in the opening game against Celta,
coming on for the last twenty minutes with the game already lost. Didn't get on
the park though in the defeat at Villarreal. |
