Friendly: Result ITALY 6 – 0 MOLDOVA, Wednesday 7 October 2020

Roberto Mancini’s fifteenth win in 22 games in charge of Italy . This is an important victory  for the FIFA Ranking, which has implications for the draw for World Cup 2022 qualification. Mancini adding, “A lot of good things were on show, we had a few problems in the first 15 minutes but that’s normal when you make a lot of changes. The team did really well after that. They had the right mentality even after changing things around and this is a great thing.”

Mancini also talked about individuals: “Berardi, Caputo and Locatelli played brilliantly.” To the question whether Caputo might shake up the hierarchy, he had this to say: “He moves well and scores goals. We already have three good players up front so it all comes down to him.”

El Shaarawy: “A special evening, wearing the captain’s armband was amazing.” Bonaventura: “We have a lot of quality in midfield.” Berardi: “Playing at the Euros is a dream”
