After the victory over Italy and the qualification of his Switzerland midfielder Granit Xhaka rejoices: “I don’t like to compare the various teams and I don’t know if it’s the most beautiful Switzerland ever – said the Swiss captain –but this national team has had energy.

But with Macedonia we had not won. I understood that I need more direct knowledge to catch the best. I also had several injured players who I was counting on”.

Spalletti and the Italy of the future: “We need to put our hands back on the frame”
“I think my passion is a symptom of profound respect for everyone – added Spalletti in the press conference after the defeat against Switzerland and the elimination from Euro 2024 -, I take responsibility for the choices. We got through a difficult group, deservedly in my opinion, but we didn’t see a team that has a base where we can build on top of it. We need to rework the framework I chose, because this is what the experience was like”.
20:53
Spalletti in the press conference: “Different choices in the future”
“They are players that I chose and I have the responsibility, but I only had ten games before arriving at the European Championship. I need more knowledge to be at my best, then I had several injuries. Switzerland deserved it”. In the press conference after the elimination in Berlin against Switzerland, Luciano Spalletti is already looking to the future of his Italy. “The National – says the Azzurri coach – in the future he must try to make different choices, we need people with more energy. The youngsters? If they have the potential to put the others on the bench, I am the first one who has to give them space. I leave with the certainty that I have to change something, it is not such a scandalous result as it will later come out. Today, like with Spain, we played a below-level match, but with Croatia it was not scandalous”.

Donnarumma: “This hurts, we apologize to everyone”
After the defeat against Switzerland that cost Italy elimination from Euro 2024 Captain Gianluigi Donnarumma also spoke: “It hurts to go out like this, we apologize to everyone – said the Italian goalkeeper to Rai Sport -. The elimination is deserved and the way it came out is very hard to digest. The first half went terribly, then we had to react in the second and instead we immediately conceded the second goal. What if the courage was lacking? Everything was missing: the quality, the courage…”.

Spalletti and the future: “I will talk to Gravina”
Again on Sky’s microphones Italy coach Spalletti spoke about the future: “I think there is the possibility of building something over time and identifying useful players, because we lacked something at an individual level. The responsibility always lies with the coach even if I didn’t have much time or matches available before arriving at the European Championship I speak to Gravina because he has always behaved in a serious and professional manner towards me, I will speak to him and we will hear what we have to say.”
20:09
Spalletti responds to Capello: “This is what made the difference”
“This elimination that happened to us today also gives us some indications. There are several things that we need to change, we need more skill beyond technical and tactical discussions.” Spalletti, connected with Sky, responded to a question from Fabio Capello who asked him why our rhythm was different: “The lack of speed is a question of characteristics, the difference is then made by the freshness when you regain it. If you can’t clean the ball within two or three passes it becomes difficult, because then you have them all around you”.
20:02
Spalletti: “I tried to change, but the result was the same”
“We were below par in terms of pace – Spalletti reiterated to Sky microphones –, both at team level and in some individual terms. And if this is the rhythm it also becomes difficult to talk about anything else, including the form. After the previous match I blamed myself for not having changed and for not having allowed someone to recover, but tonight I changed but the response was the same”
19:59
Spalletti: “Now we are not able to do more”
“That goal at the start of the second half cut our legs off a bit – he said Spalletti on Rai microphones –. We were in their half of the field but we were not very incisive. We lacked rhythm, both as a team and in individual duels. Unfortunately, pace and freshness always make the difference in helping players recover. Unfortunately, due to too many constraints, we are now unable to do more than this. The World Cup? It’s a discussion that will be done little by little, but we need more pace, more skill and sacrifice within the team. For many of us we weren’t constantly nibbling away at the measuring tape, unfortunately also due to the way the championship ended we didn’t get there in the best conditions and at this temperature it becomes tough”.
