Arsenal star Leandro Trossard made a bold statement with his match-saving performance against Italy in the UEFA Nations League on Thursday. The Red Devils found themselves trailing early when Juventus winger Andrea Cambiaso scored in the opening minute, and Atalanta’s in-form striker Mateo Retegui doubled Italy’s lead in the 24th minute.
However, the momentum shifted in Belgium’s favour when Lorenzo Pellegrini was sent off in the 38th minute, offering a lifeline to the visitors. Belgium seized the opportunity and began to dominate the match. Just before halftime, Maxim De Cuyper reduced the deficit, with Trossard delivering a deft touch to set up the Club Brugge full-back to finish off a well-executed set-piece.
