Important international experience for Sassuolo eSports, engaged these days in Manchester at the eChampions League 2026, one of the most prestigious competitions in the EA SPORTS FC competitive scene.<\/p>\n

Representing the Neroverdi colors was Samuele Prestigiacomo, aka Samugamer_07, who faced the players of Cluj, Hannover, Zalgiris, Real Sociedad, Leeds and Volendam in the League Phase, collecting 10 points. In the Playoff phase he then beat in extra time Jafonso, Manchester City player and winner of the eSports World Cup 2024 and ePremier League 2026, and subsequently, with a score of 5 to 4, Emre Yilmaz, AZ player and two-time eChampions League winner and title holder. <\/p>\n

Sassuolo eSports with Samuele thus secures the pass for the Finals, which will take place in Budapest on May 27 and will see the best eight players in Europe compete for the title.<\/p>\n
