From Eurosport
Juventus playmaker Sebastian Giovinco has shown why West Ham and Arsenal have both been tracking him during the European U21 Championships.

The 22-year-old only stands at 5′5″ and weighs under 60kg, but his lack of stature didn’t stop him playing 19 times in Serie A last season, as well as making several Champions League appearances.

He was the creative fulcrum in Italy’s run to the semi-finals, and was their star performer in the 1-0 defeat to Germany at that stage.

What he lacks in height he makes up for in work rate and technical ability, taking most of Italy’s set pieces, save for those from which Mario Balotelli chooses to shoot.

Deployed in a free role between the opposition defence and midfield, Giovinco is adept at finding space and linking his fellow midfielders with the lone striker fielded by manager Pierluigi Casiraghi.

He also has enough pace to burn down the flanks, and is canny enough to know how to draw fouls in areas where he can deliver lethal dead balls.

Key moments

7′ – Bursts forward and fires a swerving shot from 25 yards that fools Manuel Neuer, the Germany goalkeeper recovering just enough to palm the shot over the bar.

15′ – Tracks back to hinder Marko Marin’s run down the wing.

32′ – Curls an accurate corner to the far post for Marco Motta that the defender heads wide.

83′ – Another inviting set-piece delivery that defender Marco Andreolli heads just wide of the far post.

Sebastian Giovinco (Italy) – Whilst he may not have been able to find the key to open the German defence, Giovinco was consistently the most threatening player throughout the game. Flitting from one flank to the other and popping up in the middle, it seemed as if the Juventus midfielder had constructed a series of tunnels under the pitch as he kept slipping past German defenders as if he wasn’t there. Asked to play a more structured role in the second half, Giovinco’s impact on the game waned. A player of his talent deserves to have graced the final.

He IS a dwarf! I knew it :D
