The Azzurri captain was also asked about tomorrow’s opponents, and assured they’re not being underestimated.
“There’s great respect for them, that’s not just some sort of rhetoric because they’ve shown how good they are in recent years.
“They did well at the Euros too. We’re aiming to win, without thinking about the Spain game.”
