Francesco Pio Esposito was among the best on the field in last night’s pre-season friendly between Inter Milan and Monza.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, Esposito has proven that he is not only one for the future, but also for the present.
Inter beat Monza on penalties after the game ended 2-2 in regulation, with the Nerazzurri conceding a last-gasp equalizer.
However, Cristian Chivu’s side had to come from behind after Patrick Ciurria put the Biancorossi in front.
Samuele Birindelli’s own goal and Esposito’s backheel turned the match on its head.
Yet, Paulo Azzi took the game to penalties with an 89th-minute goal.
Given a chance to start, Francesco Pio Esposito refused to squander the opportunity.
Indeed, he was superb in link-up play and also slotted home a sensational backheel flick to give Inter the lead.
Therefore, he earned plaudits for his performance.
On the contrary, Federico Dimarco failed to meet expectations and was among the weakest on the field.
Despite several quality crosses, he lost track of Ciurria, leading to Monza’s opening goal.
