Xinhua News Agency reporter Yao Youming
On the 12th, the 16th European Football Championship came to an end in London, England. In the end, the “Azzurri” Italian team defeated the England team and reached the top of Europe.
There are talents from generation to generation, and the European Championship has always been the stage for the birth of newcomers, and this competition is naturally no exception.
Donnarumma: “A lot of money” turned “A lot of money”
When the main goalkeeper Donnarumma of the Italian team became the best player of the European Championship, people suddenly discovered that the seemingly mature goalkeeper was actually only 22 years old.
After Toldo and Buffon, the Italian team has found a player who can give full trust in the goalkeeper position. In this European Championship, Donnarumma “zeroed” his opponent in three games and contributed nine saves, especially in the semifinals and the final two penalty shootouts, he saved his opponent’s penalty kicks. Exciting performance is the biggest contributor to the “Azzurri” winning the championship.
Because of the contract renewal issue, the goalkeeper was given a rather ironic nickname by some fans as early as 2017-“a lot of money”. Now that the Italian team has won the championship, it is estimated that he will be renamed “Put (Save) Duoduo”.
Little Chiesa: a trophy glorious lintel
In the quarter-finals of this European Championship, the small Chiesa, who played for the Italian team, was in danger when the second half of the game was deadlocked. He did not live up to the expectations of coach Mancini and used a left foot in overtime. He scored a goal and helped the Azzurri defeat the Austrian team 2:1 and successfully advanced to the quarterfinals.
In the semifinals, Chiesa helped the Italian team break the deadlock. In the final, he ran tirelessly and repeatedly harassed the English team’s defense. The 23-year-old new star has gradually become the main force from the bench and gradually becomes the core of the team in this competition.
Little Chiesa’s father, Chiesa, was the “evergreen tree” of Serie A and won the Coppa Italia. However, the current career achievements of the young Chiesa have fully surpassed his father’s posture.
Dolberg: Ibrahimovic “successor”
In the quarter-finals of this European Championship, the 23-year-old Dolberg of Denmark scored two goals to help the team beat Wales 4-0. In the quarter-finals, Dolberg scored another goal in the 41st minute. He made a domineering gesture of kneeling in front of the goal immediately after the goal, reminiscent of the past. Swedish striker Ibrahimovic who has a similar move.
I believe that after the European Championships, Dolberg should not stay in the Nice team for too long, he should receive invitations from many giants. After all, there are very few people who can score 3 goals with 7 shots in the European Championships, and it is even rarer for young and efficient shooters to score consecutively in the key knockout stages.
Damsko: “Post-00s” approaching the center of the stage
This European Championship has many own goals and many penalty kicks have been saved, but there are few direct free kicks. It was not until the semi-final match between England and Denmark that Damskoe contributed the first free kick of this European Championship and scored directly. Not only that, he was also the first to win in the final stage of the European Championship. The “post-00” player who scored. While people are still discussing who is the successor to the “double arrogance” among the “post-90s” players, Damusko used his two goals in this tournament to tell the world that “post-00s” have come to the football arena. Central.
Last year, Sampdoria brought the Danish star to the Apennines with a transfer fee of nearly 7 million euros. It is said that after the European Championships, Damsco’s value has exceeded 40 million euros. At present, the new star’s future path is still in suspense. People don’t know whether he will choose to continue to hone his skills in Sampdoria next season or enter the giants to prove himself on a larger stage.
Olmo: the inheritor of Tiki-Taka
The Spanish team lineup of this European Championship is considered to be “lack of star flavor”. However, the performance of a young player in the team was amazing. This person is Olmo.
In the semi-finals with the Italian team, Olmo demonstrated his outstanding skills in succession, reminiscent of Iniesta who fell into the Italian team to “encircle and suppress” in the past.
Although the penalty was missed in the penalty shoot-out stage and a goal was not scored during the entire match, this does not affect people’s confidence in the 23-year-old’s inheritance and promotion of Spanish Tiki-Taka play. look forward to.
With 5 appearances and 3 assists, for Olmo, there are still unlimited possibilities in the future.
