Career

Piana began his career in France for Troyes AC in Ligue 1.[2]

He was part of the Congolese 2004 African Nations Cup team, who finished bottom of their group in the first round of competition, thus failing to secure qualification for the quarter-finals.[3]

In February 2007, he was on trial at English Football League One side Leyton Orient.

In July 2009, Piana joined Northern Premier League side Ashton United but suffered a knee injury that ruled him out for the majority of the season.[4] He left the club in September 2010.

He later returned to Ashton United for a second spell.

gollark: There was something like that on the Lua Users wiki actually.
gollark: If you pass the unserializer very safe\* functions like `load` and `debug.setupvalue` and all that, you could serialize almost anything!
gollark: I was looking at trying to address the main issue with it - the possibility of```luatextutils.unserialise [[ (function() while true do end end)()]]```things (its _ENV is sandboxed, so it can't do anything other than denial of service attacks) but I think you would *basically* need a parser to prevent that.
gollark: `textutils.unserialize` is really bad and just uses `load` internally, see.
gollark: No, that's a valid table.
