MORE MAN OF THE MATCH :)
"Man of the Match Mirco Bergamasco has been a revelation all season, rampaging around the midfield with no real elegance, but with mean effectiveness. He was better than ever, surviving the early thrusts by Wales and emerging to cut holes whenever he touched the ball. Such enthusiasm contrasted with the collective Welsh mien at the end." The Guardian
"But our man of the match is Mirco Bergamasco who underlined his growing stature with a match-winning performance that encompassed startling defence, quick-witted offence and more heart than you'd find in a card shop on Valentine's Day." Planet Rugby
"The day’s outstanding player, centre Mirco Bergamasco, who tormented the Welsh midfield from start to finish and was rightly named man of the match." The Sunday Herald
"Italy had comfortably the two best players on view in Mirco Bergamasco and Sergio Parisse, and their class and sheer enthusiasm for the fight carried Italy through their rough patches to put them in sight of victory.... You could not help but reflect that Italy would have got to the milk and honey had Mirco’s brother, Mauro, been fit to play at openside flanker. His offensive tackling and powerful carrying were badly missed." The Sunday Times
"Mirco Bergamasco has been player of the tournament so far, I reckon." and "Mirco Bergamasco is the best player of the 6N so far." BBC messageboard
"Italy would have left Wales empty-handed had it not been for the outstanding effort of centre Mirco Bergamasco, who was singled out as the game's best player." 6nations.net
"Mirco Bergamasco – He was fantastic, gave the Welsh defence problems all game." zippy on sportnetwork.net
