The vote in national newspapers fluctuates between 7 and 8. And the international press celebrates it too.

Of course, it was only a friendly match, but in yesterday's match against Ecuador Nicolò Barella was absolutely the best on the pitch, as well as the captain . And not just for the beautiful goal of 2-0, with which Francesco Totti reached 9 goals for the national team.

The goal is just the icing on the cake of a performance worth remembering, during which the Sardinian midfielder entered the main actions of the Azzurri and canceled out Moises Caicedo , the Ecuadorian midfielder on whom Chelsea spent 116 million euros in the last summer transfer window , purchasing him from De Zerbi's Brighton.
His post-match statements: « I had kept some energy for the final sprint . In the second half we suffered a little too much for our qualities, but the suffering helped me to give myself that joy."

Again: «Regardless of the form it is a new beginning, we are taking measures and we are improving. We are creating a nice group with guys who want to help each other, this is the best thing, without that there would be nothing."
