Gdansk –
Italy only drew goalless against Poland in the UEFA Nations League. Gli Azzurri’s coach, Roberto Mancini, highlighted the poor quality of the field.
Playing at the Energa Stadium in Gdansk on Monday morning (12/10/2020) WIB, Italy really controlled the game quite a bit. Up to 61 percent of ball possession belongs to Marco Verratti et al.
Attempts to attack also seemed unconvincing. Whoscored noted that there were 15 attempts made by Italy, but only two of them managed to lead to Lukasz Fabianski’s goal. The rest is far from being a target.
Meanwhile, Poland only threatened Gianluigi Donnarumma’s goalkeeper 3 times. Robert Lewandowski couldn’t do much in this match either, where he was unable to fire a single shot for 82 minutes on the field.
Mancini assessed that his adopted children looked good. However, the poor conditions of the field interrupted the flow of the ball, so the Italian game could not be maximized. Energa Gdansk is the stadium that houses the Polish League team, Lechia Gdansk.
“Unfortunately, we had many opportunities, especially in the first half, and in my opinion we were punished by the poor state of the field,” Mancini told RAI Sport, quoted by Football Italia.
“Apart from the results, which are not good, the team’s performance is really good. It is not that we make the field conditions an alibi, but they are bad. Quality players will feel punished here, the reflection of the ball is irregular “.
“We kept attacking until the end, we had several chances and we did the best we could, that’s what happened. We should have been able to win 1-2 goals in the first half, we couldn’t take the opportunity, okay,” said the allenatore of 55 years.
In addition, Italy will compete against the Netherlands at the Gewiss Stadium, Bergamo, on Thursday (10/15) at 1:45 AM WIB.
