The match against Internacional on Sunday had an extra special flavor to Atlético Mineiro striker Fred.
Besides having scored the first of his team’s three goals in the game, the player reached 600 games in his career. Fred, who came to the pitch with his two-month old daughter Júlia, has already scored eight goals in 19 matches for Atlético Mineiro, after his exit from Fluminense. In 600 games as a professional, Fred has found the net 331 times. In the 3-1 victory over Internacional, Fred scored his goal in the first-half, and was replaced by Lucas Pratto, who also found the net and completed the scoresheet.
Fred said: “It is a special night because achieving a feat like this and to still keep playing at a big club is a privilege for me. More special because I could come with Júlia. My other daughter, Geovanna, could not come. I’m very happy about it. I’m trying to take this happiness on the pitch. Things have gone well.”
