Manuel Locatelli is your Man of the Match for Italy vs. Switzerland, our second game in Group A at the Euros which finished 3-0 to Mancini’s boys.
The 23 year old from Lombardy got 77% of the vote from fans on the FIGC website, beating Leonardo Spinazzola (18%) and Ciro Immobile (4%) in second and third places respectively.
Locatelli was the hero on the night, putting in a sumptuous performance. After 26 minutes, he timed his run into the box perfectly to get onto the end of Berardi’s cross for a tap-in. Seven minutes into the second half, he got his second with a fierce left-footed strike from distance, after Barella’s neat touch. The Italian midfielder was everywhere, putting in tackles and spraying passes, with his brace moving him onto three international goals.
