Lorenzo Pellegrini voted as MVP by fans

Lorenzo Pellegrini has been voted as the Most Valuable Player in Italy’s second 2022/23 Nations League group game against Hungary, ending 2-1 in favour of the Azzurri.

The 25-year old from Rome obtained 49.3% of the vote from fans on the FIGC website, followed by Nicolò Barella (21,13%) and Wilfried Gnonto (8,45%).

Ever present in Italy’s forward plays, he was influential in Barella’s opening goal, intelligently leaving Spinazzola’s pass to goalscorer Barella.

On the stroke of halftime, he capped off a fine performance with his fifth goal in the Azzurri colours, his second consecutive one, after an assist from Matteo Politano.
