Impact Acerbi filled in for Giorgio Chiellini in the back and had a pretty strong outing, although Italy gave up their first goal of the tournament in overtime. He had a key contribution on offense as well, as he teed up Matteo Pessina with a flick-on in the box. The starter could be back for the quarter-finals against either Belgium or Portugal. Acerbi has logged six interceptions, seven clearances and two tackles in three Euro appearances (one start).
