After a promising display against Belgium, De Rossi proved a masterful performance against Ireland. His calmness under pressure was one of many attributes in an eye catching display against the rigid Spanish team. His displays will go on to have a big say in what Italy can accomplish against Spain. A strong showing in this match will go a long way in ensuring his team progresses through to the last 16.

Graziano Pelle

Pelle has been hot and cold in the two matches so far at the Euros. Italy would expect him to deliver sooner rather than later on a much more consistent basis. Pelle should be looking to score more goals for Italy if they need to progress further in this competition.
