Giovanni Pelazzo defined it disturbing that in tennis in 2026 physical integrity counted, in his opinion, more than the ability to play better than opponents. He wrote that Alexander Zverev would probably have become world number 1, despite having won two Slams while facing only one player from the top 10 overall, having a record of 2 wins and 11 losses against the top 10 in 2026 and 0-7 against Sinner, Alcaraz, and Djokovic. Pelazzo added that Zverev had lost 15 matches in 2026 and described the situation as further confirmation of an already known trend. #Tennis #Sport #Atleti (translated)

Daniele Mari reported that Mancini had expressed strong confidence in Pio Esposito's potential. According to Mancini, the forward was very eager to score and play, and within a couple of years, he could become a striker capable of making the team play, like Vieri or Toni. He specified that Esposito did not resemble Vieri in characteristics and that he perhaps resembled Toni more, but he said that his technical qualities could make him a great forward. #Calcio #SerieA #Attaccante (translated)

Matteo Di Gangi wrote that he saw, after the match in Paris, signs of progress and a recognizable identity in the team, while urging not to exaggerate in judgments. In his opinion, France was on another level, but Italy had shown character, especially in difficult moments. Di Gangi described the first half as almost perfect, citing the doubling up on the wings, the few chances conceded, and the counterattacks built after regaining the ball. He noted that in the second half, France had increased the pace and intensity and that Olise had begun to make an impact, while Donnarumma had only been beaten by a shot that hit the crossbar. He pointed to the equalizing goal, which came from high pressing and an insight from Bastoni 60-70 meters from the goal, as an important sign. On a tactical level, Di Gangi said he believed Kean should not play wide, while acknowledging that in that match two wingers were needed to contain the opponents. He added that if Kean and Pio Esposito had played together, a linking player would have been needed behind them to avoid overlaps and drops in effectiveness. He concluded by saying that, after a long dark period, he was beginning to see a recovery and hoped that Mancini could find a tactical solution. #Calcio #Tattica #Identità (translated)
