After the end of the game, “Squadra Azzurri” midfielder Manuel Locatelli commented on the performance of his own team.

“The qualification for Italy was failed even in Oslo. After that we need to analyze what and where we did wrong.

Now we have to wait for the draw and be ready for the matches in March.

It is clear that our today’s opponent played at a high level. But I think we are a good team and we definitely need to play better. This is definitely not our level,” said the Italian performer.

Italy ended up finishing second in Group I, so they will play in the World Cup qualifying playoffs.
