“Today France were superior in everything, they highlighted our shortcomings especially on set pieces.” As Fulvio Collovatiformer defender of the national team present in the studies of ‘Domenica Sportiva. “I have to say that as a defender I would have accepted anything: a goal from Lukaku, one from Thuram, but not two goals from Rabiot. We had little density in the midfield: too many midfielders didn’t carry the ball or create opportunities and Retegui was practically nothing. Atalanta’s center forward never shot on goal.”
This is Eraldo Pecci’s comment: “A few months ago we came out of the European Championship annihilated, then we played better. You can lose against France, they didn’t annihilate us like their opponents did at the European Championship, but we have to change something because you can’t concede three goals from set pieces. Having said that, now we are still a team and the latest failures are a closed parenthesis.”
