Shame

It is not easy to comment on the second consecutive elimination of our national football team from the World Cup which will take place in Qatar in November 2022.
The unexpected defeat at home against North Macedonia is only the last link in a chain that has seen our national team disintegrate after the victory at the European Championships.

Let's be clear we won the Europeans deservedly but also with a good dose of luck, it had never happened that a national team won an international competition with semifinals and finals won on penalties.
Even then it was evident that we were struggling in front of us, plus we lost Chiesa, the only one able to jump a man
giving us numerical superiority.

Already at the time I wrote that that midfield was so light strengthened in some way, now Barella is a shadow, Jorginho goes to the two per hour and Verratti in my humble opinion has always been overrated, in that role you can't always touch 8 times the ball before spinning it.

Behind the injuries of the Chiellini and Bonucci and the unfortunate Donnarumma of this period many certainties were lost.
Mancini made the mistake that all coaches who win something make, hoping that the group that brought him a prestigious trophy was eternal.

After the Europeans, it was necessary to have the courage to change, you cannot go out with Switzerland and not score a goal against Northern Ireland and Macedonia, it means that many things no longer work.
Then of course, it was enough that one of the 2 penalties taken by the Brazilian ended up in and today we will probably make other speeches.

I hope that Mancio will remain, there is little better around, we only hope that now he will trust those young people he has ignored up to now, preferring to pay the debt of gratitude with those who have it. did win.
We will see another world championship on TV, well it is in winter, we will probably suffer less and work more which, given the moonlight, would not be so bad.
