Marco Verratti, who turned 29 in November, came from Pescara, a hometown team in Serie B, debuted at less than 16 years old, and quickly established the main position in the midfield with a genius-like performance, becoming a talented rising star who was optimistic about all walks of life in China and even Europe at that time; and under the leadership of the old Czech coach Zeman, who advocated attack, Marco Villatty, who served as the brain of the team's midfield possession organization, got a lot of room to play, helped the team win the Serie B championship, and returned to the Serie A arena for 20 years; Alongside the talented midfielder in serie B, today's national team Mates Lorenzo Insigne and Chiro Immobile were also playing alongside the serie B team. With his astonishing performance in Serie B, Marco Villati attracted the attention of many European powers, and before he could prove his strength in Serie A, he was signed by Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain for 12 million euros in the summer of 2012.
At that time, Paris Saint-Germain was coached by Italian coach Ancelotti, and under Ancelotti, Marco Villati was gradually transformed into an organizational back, playing the same role as Pirlo, the midfield master of Ancelotti's ac Milan era, and this talented midfielder also quickly gained a foothold in the team and became an indispensable midfielder of this giant, no matter how many managers have changed over the years, it has not affected Marco Verratti's position, as long as the Italian midfielder is healthy, It must be the absolute main force in the team's midfield. Playing for Paris Saint-Germain for many years, Marco Verratti has won countless awards for the team, whether it is Ligue 1, the French Cup, etc., has dominated an unknown number of times, won all the seasons, except for the Champions League title that the team has always dreamed of, last year helped the team reach the final in history, but finally only lost to the feet of Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich and failed, but Marco Villattie's performance is absolutely unquestionable.
Although he became famous at a young age, Marco Verratti, who has been an Italian international since 2012, has always been an international player, not being named in the Confederations Cup squad in 2013 for playing for the U21 national team at the U2 European Cup; by the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, Marco Verratti was successfully selected and played two games in the group stage, but the team was eventually eliminated from the group stage; at euro 2016, the Paris Saint-Germain midfielder was operated on due to a groin injury and failed to play Coupled with Italy's failure to qualify for the 2018 Fifa World Cup finals in Russia, Marco Verratti has always lacked the opportunity to represent himself on the international stage.
After Mancini became the manager of the national team, he has always hoped to form a "double core" with Marco Villatty and Zoginho, and organize the midfield line around these two big players, what is important is his creative playing style, as well as his excellent possession organization and ability to read the ball, using his accurate long pass as an important point for the team to turn from defense to attack and instigate the offensive, as well as his skillful personal skills to make breakthroughs to tear through the opposing defenses; but the midfielder is plagued by injuries from time to time, and has not been able to play in recent seasons At the end of the season, due to a knee injury, he was forced to miss this European Championship, but fortunately he was still selected, but he missed the first two games of the group stage, and did not play until the last group stage against Wales, and then showed a general's style on the field, showing good ball possession and passing ability in midfield, as well as excellent ability to read the ball, so that the team's midfield attack and defense operation can be kept smooth, and also opened set-piece assist Matteo Persina to score the only goal of the game, becoming an important contributor to the team's victory.
By the round of 16 against Austria, Marco Villati replaced Manuel Locatelli, who had performed brilliantly in the group stage, but this small change almost became the key to the team's almost overturning in the gutter, because in the face of the opponent's many tall midfielders, the diminutive weakness of the Paris Saint-Germain midfielder was immediately magnified infinitely, and this son often used his personal ability to try to break through in the middle, but in exchange for walking into the crowd and falling into the opponent's long-laid net. The attack was seriously hindered, and the efficiency of the midfield was seriously affected, but fortunately, after Mancini changed the team, the team narrowly won the opponent in extra time.
After advancing to the top 8, facing the star-studded Belgium, Marco Verratti washed away the decadence of inaccuracy in the round of 16, constantly using his skilled technology in the midfield to successfully make breakthroughs and organize offensive attacks in the middle, and also made many interceptions, his calm and mature play helped the team successfully overwhelm the opponent in the midfield, so that the entire midfield line handed over a very high offensive and defensive efficiency, completely compared the opponent's midfield line, and helped the team successfully eliminate the opponent.
Facing Spain in the round of 4, although it was quite difficult due to the opponent's midfield rush, the possession and midfield snatching were compared to the opponent, and the second half was replaced, fortunately, the team finally defeated the opponent with a penalty shoot and advanced to the final.
In the final against England, first behind in the opening stages, Marco Villati calmly responded, stabilized the midfield for the team, and from time to time in the second half, he created a threat by penetrating the opponent's mid-line defense with excellent transmission, and a corner kick attack in spite of the goal to grab the top, resulting in chaos, allowing Bonucci to score an equalizer, which is the credit of the midfielder's unremitting efforts, the result of the team defeated the opponent in the penalty shootout, successfully won the championship, and Marco Verratti finally proved his masterful performance on the international stage.
