INCREASINGLY STRONGER – Decisive, in the final of the match against Lukaku and his teammates, with that left blow that incinerated Courtois and completed the exhilarating comeback from 0-2 to 3-2; absolute protagonist with another high-level performance in the final against Spain, the country that trained him in football and that today has paid duty in his presence. A crossbar and an illuminating pass that, thanks to the slight correction by Eric Garcia, made up a large part of Mbappé’s victory net. After an hour of play in battle, as a true defender, with a very insidious client like Ferran Torres, the matador of Italy in the semifinals. He is the usual Theo from the offensive point of view, one who, especially when the opponent physically drops, comes out with all his athletic power, becoming an added attacker. But which, defensively, continues to grow, thanks also to an experience acquired and which is continuing to refine thanks to Italian football and the advice of Stefano Pioli.
BALL AT AC MILAN – That she holds him tight and cuddles him, hoping that this can happen for a long time to come. As a full-back on the push or as an added half-winger, as happened in the great victory in Bergamo before the break; also in that case with a decisive step for Rafael Leao to embellish another evening as an absolute driver. The ball now passes to the management, aware of the player’s strong desire to stay in Milan, but called to speed up the times to strike up a negotiation for the extension of a contract which expires in 2024 and adjust a salary that today reaches just 1.5 million euros to more appropriate figures. Increasingly appreciated and coveted around Europe, this Theo Hernandez has shown with facts that he can play alongside people of the caliber of Pogba, Mbappé and Benzema. The alien can go home in peace: today he is the master of the French left wing, without a doubt.
