The Italian coach is pleased with the game and the result of his team
Head coach Italian national team Luciano Spalletti I was pleased with the performance of my team and the result of the match with Ukraine (0:0) in qualifying European Championship 2024.
“I heard a lot of talk that Italy qualified for the Euros, but with fear. Perhaps this is due to the start of the tournament. But I agreed to this job in order to take the team to the European Championship. I did it”.
“I liked the way we moved the ball in the game against Ukraine. Ukraine did a good job and this match was completely different from our previous winning match against North Macedonia.”
The Italian national team took second place in Group C and directly qualified for the 2024 European Championship. Spalletti’s team scored 14 points, like the Ukrainian team, but finished above the blue-yellows due to a better head-to-head difference.
Sergei Rebrov’s team will now compete for access to Euro 2024 in the Nations League playoffs. The blue-and-yellows will be waiting for the “final four” of division A or division B – this will be decided by a draw.
If they get into the playoffs of Division B, the Ukrainian team’s opponents will be Bosnia and Herzegovina and Israel, as well as Finland or Iceland. If we get into the playoffs of Division A, our team will have to compete with Poland, Estonia, as well as Wales or Croatia.
