The Georgian talent from AS Saint-Étienne, Zuriko Davitashvili, made an impression in Ligue 1 with a masterful goal scored against AJ Auxerre on October 5, 2024, which has just been voted goal of the month. During this meeting of the 7th day, the Stéphanois won with panache, and Davitashvili shone with his efficiency and precision.
This goal, now anchored in memories, saw the Georgian winger complete a superb collective action. On a precise pass from his teammate in the left lane, Davitashvili controlled the ball with remarkable finesse before adjusting the Auxerre goalkeeper with a curling shot full of precision. The impeccable trajectory of the ball left the goalkeeper without reaction, while the Saint-Etienne supporters exulted in this high-class gesture. This moment of grace perfectly illustrates the technical qualities and creativity of Davitashvili, who brings an additional dimension to ASSE's offensive play this season.
