Italy star Jorginho looked absolutely devastated after missing a crucial penalty kick against Switzerland.
The former Napoli Regista turned up for a late spot-kick at the Stadio Olimpico but sent it over the bar.
Had he scored it, one point in the last group stage game against Northern Ireland would have been enough for Italy to qualify for the 2022 World Cup.
The Chelsea playmaker missed the third penalty kick in a row for the Azzurri, the second one against Switzerland. The other one was against England in the penalty shootout of the UEFA Euro 2020 Final.
Jorginho looked absolutely distressed immediately after missing the spot-kick and a few minutes later, when the referee blew the final whistle.
Leonardo Bonucci tried to cheer him up, but the Juventus defender could do nothing to console his teammate.
The Azzurri remain on top of Group C on even points with Switzerland, but with a better goal difference.
The Swiss host Bulgaria on Monday, while Italy travel to Northern Ireland.
“We missed a penalty in the first leg and one in the return, these things happen,” Mancini said in the post-match interview with RAI Sport.
“Jorginho felt like kicking it and it’s right that he did. He is one of the penalty takers in the team.”
