When the call comes in, Kevin Spadanuda is sitting at home with his mother. He tells her that he has to go next door quickly to make a call. When he comes back, tears flow, both of them. “We went nuts,” Spadanuda recalls.
Now, three years later, Spadanuda, the father is Italian, the mother Portuguese, is still an Aarau player and is at the gates of the Super League. The Aarauer are leaders, and the man with the number 7 is the outstanding figure in this fight for promotion. On Friday he scored once in the 4-0 win in Yverdon, the freestyle came on Monday evening in the home game against Lausanne-Ouchy. He scored both goals in the 2-1 win, one of them deep in stoppage time, escalation in Brügglifeld.
