Mancini, 'with France good at knowing how to suffer and then attack'

Why is Italy no longer afraid? Because it's a football match. Football matches are played for fun and everyone has fun when you win. So to win you have to attack, you don't have to be afraid even in the greatest difficulties.

So Roberto Mancini on the eve of the match against Belgium, the last match of the Nations League group. "In a difficult situation the team must score but also know how to defend. The boys were good at suffering against France in the first twenty minutes and then they started playing again, so this is very positive, the attacking mentality of not waiting around."

Having left Frattesi and Cambiaghi in retirement, the coach must find alternative solutions on the pitch: "Riccardo Calafiori is one of the players we will have to evaluate tomorrow" explained Mancini.
