Valletta FC’s Matteo Piciollo is the BOV Player of the Month for March 2018.
The Italian left-winger stole the show in Valletta’s 2-0 over Tarxien Rainbows, so much so that he was selected as the BOV Man of the Match.
In the first minute of the second half, Piciollo sent a menacing cross-shot that the Tarxien goalkeeper Cassar just managed to tip over the bar.
Moments later he intercepted a pass by Andrew Agius veering sideways and fired a beautiful shot to the near corner past Cassar, taking his season tally to 6.
He also went close in giving Valletta the lead in their 1-0 win over St Andrews when just past the half hour, he picked up a Miguel Angel Alba cross with his close range effort hitting the woodwork.
The upright denied him again in the 42nd minute from a good attempt on the left.
Piciollo was part of Valletta's team which defeated Ħamrun Spartans 3-0, last Sunday, as they overtook Balzan to regain the top spot in the championship with two games to go.
