“Celebration borne of desire, Union, respect for each other, hunger, pride and this marvellous GROUP.

“Not a selection, but a Team. Proud to have been a part of it. We tried, have zero regrets for the games played on a par with national teams that were considered favourites.

“Thank you to the Italians who supported us, cheered us on, moved us and thanks also to those who couldn’t wait for this Great Nazionale to crash out.

“Thank you, because you will be the motivation that makes us continue improving.

“Forza Italia, Forza Azzurri, long live the Italians.”
