Pablo Palacios

Pablo David Palacios Herreria (born February 5, 1982, in Quito) is a former Ecuadorian football striker.

After spending some seasons in third division clubs América de Quito and Otavalo, he moved to Liga's rivals Aucas in 2004.

His talent and goalscoring prowess earned him a call-up to the national team from Colombian coach Luis Fernando Suárez.

Barcelona barely escaped relegation and Palacios was tied as Barca's top-scorer for the season with only 6 goals.

Palacios began playing for Ecuador in 2007, making some important appearances against squads like Sweden, Ireland,[4] and Colombia.
