AC Milan midfielder Kevin Zeroli continued his excellent start to the U19 European Championship by scoring the opening goal for Italy against Northern Ireland.
In the 15th minute of the second group stage – and having scored the winner against Norway a few days ago – Zeroli again got on the scoresheet. This time a knock-on allowed him to swivel inside the box and fire in with a first time effort.
In total, there are six Milan players in the squad which goes to show the strength of the Rossoneri’s youth sector right now, and the wealth of talent that Paulo Fonseca and/or Daniele Bonera will be able to tap into when the season is underway.

Another game, another goal by Zeroli 👏👏
Maybe Milan have their own version of Jude Bellingham 👀
Wot?
Let him grow in peace, dude. Bellingham already had his number retired at Watford or smth by this age
He doesn’t need peace. He needs to play!
Great, I hope he will get a chance in the first team this season.
Camarda also scored.
Nobody and I mean NOBODY will say anything bad about the team, the manager or the owner if we play our young players and loose. We support our young players and we want them getting real playtime in the first team. Now! This season! Look at Barca, Spain national team. We want to see Simic, Zeroli, Camarda, Bartesaghi and others on the field! Let them have their mistakes, let them grow, gain confidence, but let them PLAY!
I agree with Sheva. Why are they so reluctant to play their youth players, but spend money on foreigners with same or lower talent. They can only improve if they keep playing. Having a U23 team is a great step though.
