Fans have mixed feelings as Italy qualify for World Cup play-off Final | OneFootball

Italy progressed to the World Cup play-off Final with a 2-0 win over Northern Ireland, but fans on social media still have mixed feelings regarding the Azzurri’s performance on Thursday.

Goals from Sandro Tonali and Moise Kean gave Italy a 2-0 win over Northern Ireland in the World Cup play-off semifinal on Thursday, earning a ticket to the Final, to be played away at Bosnia and Herzegovina next Tuesday.

Tonali and Kean scored in the second half after Italy had failed to pose much of a threat to the Northern Ireland defence in the opening 45 minutes.

As coach Gennaro Gattuso admitted at full-time, the Azzurri were too predictable and “slow” in the first half, and the Nazionale will have to assess this in the coming days as they prepare for the final against Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The celebrations by Federico Dimarco and other Italian players following Bosnia’s win over Wales also drew the fans’ attention, who now hope the video doesn’t come back to haunt the national team in a few days.
