The exclusive production of \pi\pi and \pi\rho in hard \gamma^{\star}\gamma scattering in the forward kinematical region where the virtual photon is highly off-shell are studied through the \gamma\to\pi^- Transition Distribution Amplitudes. The calculation is based on a covariant Bethe-Salpeter approach, applied to the Nambu - Jona-Lasinio model, for the determination of the pion bound state. In particular it is shown that the pion pole contribution produces a large enhancement of the differential cross section for the pion pair production with respect to previous estimates.
