Matteo Berrettini had a rather emotional rollercoaster on Sunday. The upcoming Italian player lost to Novak Djokovic in the Wimbledon final, but his day wasn;t 100% horrible.
Matteo did not miss the chance to go and see the Italian international soccer team playing the Euro2020 final against England just after a few hours he lost to Djokovic. Eventually, the “Azzurri” won at the penalty shoot-out and Matteo was caught on camera by his girlfriend Ajla Tomljanovic screaming for joy.
It’s weird to see a tennis player so happy soon after losing a Wimbledon final!
Here the funny video!
