Italy, after failing to qualify for the 2022 FIFA World Cup lost also the FINALISSIMA. Italy as European Champions living a total nightmare. Italy lost the Finalissima against Copa América champions Argentina at Wembley in London England on Wednesday 1 June 2022. Italy lost their fourth consecutive game against Argentina. At this point, it is a moment to reflect and take drastic decisions on rebuilding the New Italy.
A sour return to Wembley, in the stadium where Italy won the European champion less than a year ago. For the first time since 1993, the European champion Italy and last Copa America champion return to face each other, as it happened the last time 29 years ago (when it was originally named Artemio Franchi Cup in honor of a great Italian sports administrator).
Congratulations to 🇦🇷 Serie A players with Argentina for winning the FINALISSIMA: Juan Musso (Atalanta), Nahuel Molina (Udinese), Nehuén Pérez (Udinese), Nicolás González (Fiorentina), Paulo Dybala (Juventus), Joaquín Correa (Inter), and Lautaro Martínez (Inter).

It is certainly a memorable match for Giorgio Chiellini, who leaves the national team in this very final. Ideally, Chiellini would love to say goodbye by adding his last trophy with the Azzurri. Before the Finalissima, President Gabriele Gravina presented the Captain with a trophy to acknowledge his extraordinary career with the National Team making 117 appearances, level with Daniele De Rossi in the all-time standings.

As reported by the FIGC, the celebration will continue in Rome, the city to which the European Championship trophy returned 53 years on from the previous triumph at the Olimpico in 1968. At Piazza della Repubblica, thanks to an initiative promoted by the FIGC and Urban vision (a leading media company in sponsored restorations and out-of-home advertising), the Captain’s best moments in the Azzurri shirt will be broadcast on a giant LED screen.

There’s no better stage to say goodbye. Giorgio Chiellini’s long international career is coming to an end tomorrow at Wembley, the stadium where he experienced the biggest satisfaction of his sporting career as he became a European Champion last summer. It’ll be the last chapter of a wonderful tale, one which began 22 years ago in Wellingborough, England when Italy U15s took on their English counterparts in a friendly.

After making 71 appearances in the National Team youth setup, a period which saw him win the 2003 European Under-19 Championship in Liechtenstein and a bronze medal with the U21s at the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, he made his debut under Marcello Lippi in a friendly against Finland in Messina. There have been many firsts since then: against Scotland on 26 March 2005, he made his first start; against the Faroe Islands on 21 November 2007, he scored his first goal; against France on 14 November 2012, he captained his country for the first time. Tomorrow evening, he’ll make his 117th Azzurri appearance, joining Daniele De Rossi in fourth place in the all-time ranking.
