Sydney FC’s new winger, Douglas Costa, has made an impressive start in Sky Blue. The 33-year-old Brazilian, who joined the club in August, shined during his competitive debut against Hong Kong’s Eastern SC in the AFC Champions League Two.
Costa played a pivotal role in Sydney’s opening goal, assisting fellow new signing Anas Ouahim. His first competitive assist for the club came just before half-time with a perfectly placed cross to Rhyan Grant.
Continuing his strong performance after the break, Costa delivered a no-look pass to Patryk Klimala, setting up a move that led to Ouahim’s second goal, securing his brace.
As one of the most high-profile signings in Isuzu UTE A-League history, Costa arrived with high expectations, and his debut at Netstrata Jubilee Stadium will surely excite Sydney FC fans. His standout performance suggests he is well on his way to living up to his reputation as a world-class talent.
