“We want to entertain the fans and ourselves. It’ll be a packed stadium, it’s up to us to fire the fans up and hope they give us a hand too,” the Coach told Rai Sport.
Mancini was asked what advice he would give to 19-year-old Kean ahead of his first senior Italy start.
“The pitch doesn’t change, it’s still the same size and has a goal at each end. Kean needs to treat it like any other game, as he has enough experience to play.
“We will try to finish off all the chances that we create this time.”
