Oliver Provstgaard has emerged as one of the key figures in Lazio’s impressive start to the season after scoring the winning goal against Juventus.
The Denmark centre-back became a first-team regular following Mario Gila’s departure and has established himself as an indispensable member of the Biancocelesti squad. His decisive strike in the previous round was his first goal for Lazio and secured victory in their match against Juventus.
Provstgaard’s path to scoring a match-winning goal in Serie A began, in part, in virtual football. Until recently, the Dane had played the game on a games console rather than on the pitch.
In 2021, he won the virtual Champions League, earning a real prize of 75,000 euros after defeating the team of an Italian player in the final.
