Mattia Zaccagni, the hero of the Italian national team in the recent match against Croatia, is making a lot of noise when he is caught in a love triangle with his teammates right at the blue team.
The name Mattia Zaccagni is being mentioned a lot when he became the hero of the Italian national team in the recent decisive match against Croatia. Zaccagni came on from the bench and took only 7 touches of the ball to become an Azzurri hero. Zaccagni picked up Riccardo Calafiori's pass and scored a one-touch shot into the net for the checkered team.
Zaccagni's precious goal in the 90+8 minute helped Italy keep 1 point and qualify for the round of 16 at EURO 2024 against Switzerland. Sharing after the match, Zaccagni said: "I am extremely happy with that goal. It was such a great move that I can't describe it. Calafiori handled it very skillfully and put the ball right at my feet. At that time, I didn't think much, just ran and finished. Then the goal and my teammates crushed me to the point of suffocation while celebrating."
The irony is that Zaccagni, the hero of the Italian national team in the recent match against Croatia, is causing a lot of noise when he is entangled in a love triangle with his teammates right at the blue team. More specifically, Zaccagni and Nicolo Zaniolo, Zaccagni's teammate at the Italian national team, and model Chiara Nasti are the main characters in this love triangle.
Last September, in the match between Italy and North Macedonia in Group C of the EURO 2024 qualifying round, coach Luciano Spaletti decided to make a tactical change by sending Matteo Zaniolo onto the field after halftime. While Zaniolo plays on the right wing, on the other wing is Mattia Zaccagni. What's surprising is that this is the first time Zaniolo and Zaccagni have played together, after the noise caused when they were caught up in a love triangle scandal.
Back in time, in 2021, Zaniolo, then playing for Roma, began a romantic relationship with model Chiara Nasti. The love story between the two caused a stir, and it became even more noisy when the two suddenly announced their separation after only a few months of being together. Almost immediately, Nasti announced she had found new love with Zaccagni.
That's why many people believe that the possibility of adultery is the cause of the breakup between Zaniolo and Chiara Nasti. Even more noisy when 3 months later, it was discovered that Chiara was pregnant. This love triangle scandal inspired fans to compose the song: "Zaccagni's son from Zaniolo" to mock both football players fighting for the same ball. Through this, Chiara has transformed herself into a second Wanda Nara. It is important to know that Wanda has become one of the most controversial WAGs in world football from her love triangle with two Argentinian players: Maxi Lopez and Mauro Icardi.
In addition to the injury reason, there is also news that the reason coach Luciano Spalletti did not call up Zaniolo to compete at EURO 2024 was because he did not want to encounter trouble from the love story of Zaniolo and Zaccagni.
