Federico Coletta, an 18-year-old Italian midfielder from Benfica, who was signed from Roma last summer, scored in the 3-0 victory of Italy’s U19 team over Slovakia in Cosenza. The Italian U19 national team took an important step towards the final stage of the European Championship, with Coletta in great form. He came off the bench at the 51st minute and scored in the 72nd minute with a shot inside the box. In Italy, the player continues to make headlines, surprising many with his decision to swap Roma for Lisbon in the final stages of his development. With each game and confirmation of his talent, Italian critics raise questions about what really led the player to move to Benfica, with the answer lying in the training center in Seixal and the work being done there. Italy and Turkey share the lead, and the third and decisive match is scheduled for Tuesday, when the teams will face off in Catanzaro.
