Tonali hails Pio Esposito: “He deserves the spotlight” | OneFootball

At the end of the match between Estonia and Italy, won by the Azzurri 1-3, Newcastle and Italy national team midfielder Sandro Tonali spoke to Sky Sport’s microphones, focusing on the goal scored by Pio Esposito.

National team, Tonali praises Pio Esposito after his goal away to Estonia: “When a player is this strong, he has to take center stage”

A good performance from the Italian national team, which, at the A. Le Coq Arena in Tallinn, took all three points and secured second place in the qualifying group, which would mean, once again, a playoff to qualify for the next World Cup. It was a match in which Sandro Tonali was a standout, having become an irreplaceable piece in Gennaro Gattuso’s setup.

At the end of the game, the former Milan and Brescia midfielder spoke to Sky Sport’s microphones, saying he was really happy for Pio Esposito’s goal. These were his words: “Pio Esposito deserves it. If a player comes to the national team, gives 100%, and manages to score, it’s right that he earns the applause of his teammates. When someone is really, really strong and puts in the effort, he deserves everything. We help all the new guys, but they’re smart and don’t need us to carry them. Here in Estonia we played well for basically the entire ninety minutes, and we’re happy to have played with confidence and courage.”
