The hunt for Italy begins

That's how it has to be with us. These words have chosen Germany's number 1 Manuel new recently in relation to Italy \ - and thus indicated at the same time what leads to the acting European champion in the coming months.

The short form: every coming opponent and every potential counterparty at the (winter) World Championship next year will try to look behind the success of the Azzurri, to analyze the game even better and to light the work of National Trainer Mancini. Finally, Italy won the EM this summer (3: 2 I.e. In the Wembley Stadium against England) and already powerful impression already made throughout the tournament - with a great team spirit, a lot of use, offensive pleasure, fun.

Heavy makes things still that the pressure on the Italians will be higher from the inside. Because the profit of the first and a total of the second EM title after 1968 also fails in the country, among the fans as well as in the association and in the team the expectation. Thus, in the World Cup qualification is a possible world record at the game, in addition, with Jorginho Europe's footballer of the year 2021, the squad - and by the way the World Cup is already ahead of your shadows.

The surprise team is Passé

In short: with kick-off of the World Cup qualifier on Thursday (20.45, live! At Trainer Mancini) against Bulgaria, everyone looks at the Squadra Azzurra, which wants to play in Qatar in 2022 in order to play the Golden Cup - and from themselves .

Now it becomes difficult because Italy is no longer a surprise team, has already Midfeldenker Jorginho, also known as Il Professore or Radio Jorgho, meant before the fourth qualifier in Florence. It is a special game against the Bulgarians but not only because it is a game one after the EM final in the penalty drama against England.

The Italians can create historical work: because previously in history only Spain and Brazil (35 games) have been unbeaten longer than the Azzurri. The European champion can now equal with the other two big nations. Parallel, it's about victory number four in a previously perfect qualifying round. If the next threesome succeeds, Mancini could sweep away flights towards Doha.

Italy is allowed to cover the cover

Mancini already has a plan for the upcoming tasks, which should cushion the now existing pressure: I want the guys to continue where they have stopped - as a unity that has fun. His star should remain the team, even if Jorginho is slow as a candidate for the world football title, which also supports Mancini itself. But in the squad, the director is only one of 25 European mainists who occupied the coach for the country games. Only the injured Leonardo Spinazzola (AS ROM, Achilles tendon tear) is missing from the EM heroes.

This unit should now manage one of the largest traumata of Italy: the missed World Cup 2018 in Russia. The victory in Wembley must not be forgotten that we have missed this goal at the end of 2017 what the darkest phase triggered in our younger history, said Association President Gabriele Gravina opposite the French news agency AFP.

This drastic experience four years ago is also the main reason for the understatement that many spray around the team's environment. The Azzurri, after the World Cup success in Germany in 2006 over the years more and more from the world lit in 2006 (despite the meantime high at the EM 2016 under Antonio Conte), finally returned to where we belong, says Jorginho, but also Staying to stay modest. At the moment in which you cover the cover, bad things would happen. And that should not happen, even if the other nations and upcoming opponents want to provoke and see exactly that.
