Gattuso reveals Italy’s starters vs Moldova, thanks the lads | OneFootball

The National Team coach, Gennaro Gattuso, spoke at a press conference on the eve of the match against Moldova, valid for the World Cup Playoff Qualification.

Italy, Gattuso at the conference: “Scamacca and Raspadori will start, I have to thank Barella, Bastoni, and Calafiori”

Coach Gennaro Gattuso spoke to Sky microphones before the match against Moldova. Here are his words:

About the match

“Nothing is easy, there's no need to go too far. Let's remember the match in Reggio Emilia four months ago. Many remember the 11-1 defeat to Norway, but they are not just anyone. They have their difficulties, but tomorrow won't be a walk in the park. Tomorrow there will be more than one change, I want to see the growth I've been talking about for a long time. Nothing is easy.”

About Scamacca

“He and Raspadori will start from the beginning, he certainly lacks playing time. They will both start, he shouldn't overdo it: we know his characteristics and his shooting skills. We know what he can give us, he needs to stay calm and play a serious game.”

About awareness

“No regrets. Winning helps to win, we need to understand the criteria well: now it's up to us, but seeing South America where six out of ten teams go directly and the seventh plays a playoff with Oceania brings regrets. That's the disappointment, something needs to be fixed.”

About the March playoff

“I'm honest, my mind is on tomorrow's game and I don't go beyond that. I want to see the growth, how they train, how well they are together. In my opinion, this gathering wasn't simple, already qualified, small aches, and many other things, yet I have to thank Barella, Calafiori, Bastoni. I can tell many stories, but it wasn't a given and I have to compliment the guys for the professionalism and desire they are showing day after day.”
