Box-to-BoxDefensive

Evangelista is the tactical glue for a struggling side, operating as a high-volume progressor who blends blue-collar defensive grit with the vision of a genuine playmaker. Evangelista is the tactical glue for a struggling side, operating as a high-volume progressor who blends blue-collar defensive grit with the vision of a genuine playmaker. While his raw volume of aerial wins per ninety looks pedestrian, the counterintuitive reality is found in his efficiency; a 60% aerial win rate places him in the league’s top 10%, proving he is elite at picking his battles even if he isn't a constant target man.
