Italian Soccer Serie A supports the Italian National Team

- THE UEFA EURO QUALIFIERS – Here is the situation as reported by UEFA. Qualifying for UEFA EURO 2020 will have 24 finalists. The 55 teams were split into ten groups of five or six. Four of the five groups of five contain one team that has qualified for the UEFA Nations League finals (to be played June 2019). The top two from each group will qualify for the final tournament, determining the first 20 places.
Coach Mancini is sending a clear message that the rebuilding of the New Italian team is on by calling up many young players. Surely, some of the most experienced players are also among the list like 36 years old Sampdoria forward Fabio Quagliarella who is currently the top scorer of the Serie A up to Week 28 with 21 goals.
