Bradley Barcola was too quick for Giovanni Di Lorenzo and Gianluigi Donnarumma to open the scoring in the 13th second of the France-Italy clash on Friday night at the Parc des Princes, as part of the first day of the Nations League. The Azzurri equalized after half an hour of play on an equally dazzling move that left the Blues’ defense in their tracks. A pretty incredible golazo.
On a reversal of play from right to left, Federico Dimarco, the Italians’ left piston, put the ball back to Sandro Tonali who then served it deep into the French area. At the end of this aerial one-two (the ball did not touch the ground), the Inter Milan full-back produced a whipped shot with his left foot to find the small opposite net of Mike Maignan (30th).
Deschamps concedes first goal at the Parc
Dimarco, a player with a magnificent left foot, scored his third goal for the Italian national team in 23 matches. It should be noted that the French team conceded its first goal at the Parc des Princes under Didier Deschamps in four matches in the PSG den.
