Sampdoria, eyes on Ghilardi from Verona: «Great protagonist of the Mazza match»

Ghilardi’s performance with Italy U21 did not go unnoticed; here is the reaction from Verona for the first goal in blue

The central defender of Sampdoria Daniele Ghilardi he scored his first goal for the National Under 21 team. It was probably one of the most emotional moments of the player’s career.Hellas Verona who scored the opening goal in the match between Italy And Türkiye.

In this way he made amends for his naivety in having too easily conceded a penalty foul which was then saved by the Azzurri goalkeeper Desplanches. On calciohellas.it thus a comment appears on the player loaned to the Ligurian club, with which he is also twinned, and he wrote:

«The great protagonist of the Mazza match is Daniele Ghilardi: coming on in the 28th minute for the injured Pirola, the defender owned by Hellas Verona (currently on loan at Sampdoria) positioned himself next to the other yellow-blue player Diego Coppola (starter and remained on the pitch for the entire match), first committing a penalty foul (save by the Italian goalkeeper Desplanches) and then scoring the 1-0 for the Italian team following a free kick (50′). First goal in blue therefore for Ghilardi who, in his third appearance with the Under 21s, embellishes a season which has already seen him collect thirty-one appearances and two goals under Pirlo’s orders.”
