Italy U-21, Nicolato: 'Good, but we must improve. The replacement of Kean...'
- Apollo Heyes
The Italy U-21 team disappointed this summer, failing to progress past the group stages of 2019 UEFA European Under-21 Championship, after losing 1-0 to Poland, despite winning the other two games in the group.
“It was a good game, but we can improve. In the first half, perhaps, we wasted the ball a little too much. Our type of game tends to wear out opponents like these, who tend to press, finding a little more room in the second half. The replacement of Kean? I needed a player who could play more widely. Moise tended to centralise and I had Riccardo on the bench who, on the other hand, is very good at that kind of game. Zaniolo's change? I have a lot of quality players and, if I can, I prefer to use them.”
