📸 Pisilli's brilliance not enough, Italy U21 second, quarter-final drama
In the final match of Group A of the Under 21 European Championship, Nunziata's Italy faced Spain for supremacy in the group. In a lively, sparkling game, at times well played and dominated by the Azzurrini, the final 1-1 draw was not enough for the overtaking: due to the goal difference, Spain finishes first. For Italy, in the quarterfinals, either Germany or England, who will compete for the top spot in Group B. Advertisement GOAL FROM THE MAN OF THE MARKET, PISILLI'S MASTERPIECE Spain unlocked the match with one of the men of the market for Serie A: Jesus Rodriguez. The Betis talent took advantage of a not perfect closure of Nunziata's defense, putting the Roja ahead at the 53'. Italy did not take the hit, on the contrary: after 5 minutes Pisilli took the team on his shoulders equalizing the match with a masterpiece goal. Having collected a launch from the back, Pisilli avoided a defender and from inside the area he unloaded a powerful right on the far post. A truly beautiful goal that, unfortunately, did not help Italy to grab the top spot. Photo Credit: Profilo X Italian National Team This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.

Footballer Niccolò Pisilli Joins Team Skechers
AS Roma and Italian National Team Midfielder Competing in Skechers Football boots MILAN, March 20, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Skechers brings more energy to the pitch by adding the first Italian footballer to its team with Niccolò Pisilli, the midfielder for AS Roma and the Italian National Team. Known for his excellent skills on the pitch, Pisilli is already competing in Skechers SKX_1.5 ELITE—a lightweight boot with responsive cushioning and a molded upper for precise ball control. He will also appear as the face of Skechers Football in multiplatform marketing campaigns in Italy. "Skechers has the most comfortable football boots on the pitch, and they provide the performance and stability required for my style of play," said Niccolò Pisilli. "It's an honor to be the face of Skechers Football here in Italy and to represent the brand during all my matches. I look forward to helping build awareness about the comfort and innovation of Skechers Football. There's nothing like it." Sergio Esposito, Country Manager of Skechers Italy, adds, "Niccolò Pisilli is a rising talent who already boasts a significant resume at the national and European level. As he carves out an important role in Italian and international football, it is the ideal time to bring this rising star to Team Skechers as our country's first elite football player. We believe he is fully in line with the philosophy of the brand and particularly that of the Skechers Football division. As an Ambassador, he will help players across the country discover Skechers Football and the 'Comfort That Performs' slogan that distinguishes our innovative footwear." Niccolò Pisilli, born in 2004, is one of the emerging talents in Italian football and trained in the youth sector of AS Roma. He made his Serie A debut with AS Roma in May 2023 against Inter Milan and immediately showed personality and quality on the pitch. He plays as a midfielder, alternating technical qualities and intensity in duels. Pisilli went through all the Azzurri representative teams, contributing to the victory of the European Under-19 Championship in 2023, until making his debut for the senior national team in 2024. He is known for his versatility in midfield and his ability to contribute on both the defensive and offensive sides of the pitch. The Skechers Football range spans three Elite styles for men and women including the new Electrum Pack. The Skechers Razor is a lightweight speed boot with an explosive track-inspired design to maximize acceleration and energy return. It features a carbon-infused soleplate for responsive power and agility during play. The SKX_1.5 is ideal for striking the ball with a custom last, meticulously crafted to optimize comfort and deliver a perfect fit for enhancing touch on the field. Both shoes are available as standard low-profile, while the SKX_1.5 is also available with a taller collar for added support. In addition to the Elite styles, Skechers also offers a line of Academy boots perfect for all levels of play with maximized performance and comfort, along with Youth and Kids football boots for the next generation of players who want to emulate their favourite stars, featuring an adaptable fit and improved comfort in every pair. Both ranges are available in firm ground and turf models. Skechers Football launched at the start of the 2023/24 season when the brand signed Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane as the first pro to compete in the boot. Skechers has since expanded its roster with several elite athletes including winger Baris Alper Yilmaz from the Turkey National Team, West Ham United and Ghana National Team winger Mohammed Kudus, Real Betis midfielder Isco Alarcón, Nottingham Forest and Swedish National Team forward Anthony Elanga, Arsenal and Ukrainian National Team defender Oleksandr Zinchenko, as well as additional men's and women's professional athletes globally. Beyond football, the Skechers team of elite athletes competing in the brand's performance footwear includes basketball stars Joel Embiid, Julius Randle, Terance Mann, Norman Powell, Jabari Walker and Rickea Jackson; golfers Matt Fitzpatrick and Brooke Henderson; pickleball pros Tyson McGuffin and Catherine Parenteau; and Major League Baseball players Clayton Kershaw and Aaron Nola, among others.

Official: Pisilli signs new Roma contract to 2026
Roma have officially extended their contract with youth product Niccolò Pisilli to June 2029. The midfielder was born and bred supporting the Giallorossi, coming up through their academy to become a regular for the first team. He was also on target in Thursday's Europa League play-off victory against FC Porto, which set up their Round of 16 tie with Athletic Club. The 20-year-old has 34 appearances for the senior Roma squad, scoring four goals across Serie A, the Europa League and Coppa Italia. These performances have helped earn him his senior Italy debut in October 2024, just days after his 20th birthday. His previous contract had been due to expire in June 2026 and inevitably this will also be worth a significant pay increase. Pisilli made his debut for the Roma first team under Jose Mourinho in the 2-0 home defeat to Inter on May 6, 2023. He was only 18 years, seven months and 13 days old at the time. His first goal for the club was in the 3-0 Europa League victory over Sheriff Tiraspol in December 2023. 🤝 Niccolò Pisilli 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣9️⃣ 🐺
