La Europa League saluda a un nuevo héroe: Daichi Kamada (Ehime, 1996). El atacante japonés, de 23 años, lideró la goleada del Eintracht Frankfurt sobre el Salzburgo (4-1) al anotar un 'hat-trick' (12', 43' y 56'). Kostic (56') redondeó el triunfo y el coreano Hee-Chan (85') marcó el tanto del honor y, quién sabe, si de la esperanza para los pupilos de Jesse Marsch.
El Commerzbank-Arena no echó de menos, por un día, ni a Haller, ni a Jovic, ni a Rebic. Y eso es gracias a que Kamada ha encontrado su 'hábitat' en la Europa League. El nipón aún no se ha estrenado esta temporada en Liga -ha jugado 17 partidos- y, sin embargo, acumula seis tantos en siete partidos de Europa League. Es, de hecho, el Pichichi del torneo junto al colombiano Alfredo Morelos (Rangers) y el esloveno Andrasz Sporar (Sporting CP).
Kamada venía de marcar dos goles en la victoria contra el Arsenal (1-2) y otro en la derrota frente al Vitória Guimaraes (2-3) en las dos últimas jornadas de la fase de grupos. Su idilio continuó frente al Salzburgo. En el 12' recibió un pase interior de Touré y marcó al superar por entre las piernas a Stankovic.
Amplió distancias a la cotnra en el 53'. N'Dicka lanzó la contra y el nipón hizo el resto. Se marchó por velocidad y sentó a 6Onguene con la derecha antes de marcar con la zurda. Espectacular.
Kamada redondeó su 'hat-trick' perfecto -había marcado con la derecha y con la izquierda- con la testa. Centró N'Dicka y él cabeceó a la red con la colaboración de Stankovic, que pudo hacer más por evitar el tanto.
