The Italian team arrives in Lithuania in a good mood.
One of the most popular national teams on the planet has long forgotten the taste of defeat: Roberto Mancini, who has been in charge of the team, has incredible statistics.
The 56-year-old Italian has not failed in a single match in 24 matches and is trying to improve the country’s all-time record.
One memorable achievement belongs to Vittorio Pozzo, who managed to avoid the bitterness of defeat in 30 games in the 1930s.
In addition, R. Mancini can already be compared with the legendary Marcello Lippi after the Vilnius match.
The veteran, who led the fantastic team, never lost in 25 matches in 2004-2006 and eventually the Italian team under his leadership became world champions.
The secret of the success of the team led by R. Mancini is the iron defense. In 24 games, the Italians saved a “dry” goal 17 times, and in the last 14 games they only missed 3 goals.
