Bernardeschi married his girlfriend just after two days of winning Euro 2020 final

Federico Bernardeschi who led through the critical penalty shootout in the Euro 2020 final got married to his TV star girlfriend Veronica Ciardi. This great moment took place on 13 July (Tuesday), just after two days of his team winning the Euro 2020 final on 11 July (Sunday).

The 27-year-old Italian winger was the last player to score a penalty in the final. This Juventus star is believed to have married his partner in Carrara, a city in the Italian region of Tuscany on the north-west coast.

Bernardeschi’s wedding happened inside 48 hours after he scored in the Azzurri’s penalty shootout triumph at Wembley. He was introduced in the 86th minute and gave Italy a 3-2 lead in the shootout.

However, it was Federico’s team-mate Jorginho who missed the penalties later. Also, English pair Bukayo Saka and Jadon Sancho missed the penalties from 12 yards after Bernardeschi scored one to keep Italy at the top.

Bernardeschi had no hug with Ciardi (36) between late May and the final. This was after being in a strict Covid-19 bubble with his international team-mates. None of the player’s international team-mates are believed to have attended the ceremony.

Ciardi achieved national fame after appearing in Italy’s version of Big Brother between 2009 and 2010, later working as a TV correspondent. The couple has been together for some time, welcoming the birth of their first daughter Deva in August 2019.
