in the sense that the team apparently "dominated". I saw some good movements (didn't watch the whole game) but they do not know how to prepare a dangerous play in the final third. They really need to stop using immobile. He is not a good target man at all.

like a change to 4-4-2 would be nice to try

I think the time the starting 11 were in the match wasn't actually that bad. I think that the Barella-Jorginho-Verratti midfield was a big improvement. The three up front showed potential and if they develop more chemistry the finishing will come.

I think it was better than the Portugal and Poland matches last month, but we'll see if that was just the competition or if they are actually improving later today.

Unlucky not to score. Italy hit the bar in Poland.
 
#17 ·
That would have been a fine goal by Jorginho
 
#18 ·
Insigne tried a 'palonetto' (sp?) but it went over
 
#20 ·
Italy hit the bar again.

Chiesa this time
 
#21 ·
Jorginho denied a certain goal by Czrhhfgjsfny
 
#22 ·
Chezny saves Poland again

This time from Chiellini
 
#23 ·
Btw to correct myself, it was insigne who hit the bar the second time not Chiesa. Chiesa was the one who played him in.
 
#24 ·
Chezny motm

Now he denied Florenzi

HT 0-0

Italy didn't score but played well enough to merit 5 goals away from home in 1 half. The crossbar and Chezny saving the Poles. Donnaruma hasn't touched the ball.
