Set piece goal given up. Yes slight offsides on the run-up. Header went right to Sirigu who did nicely to get a hand on it but it looked like he should have parried it off to the side instead of a nice juicy rebound goal . I cannot wait to see the updated Fifa Rankings next month. Hopefully they'll be out of the top 20. Suits them right. Conte is too concerned about the attackers instead of trying out other defenders that dont play for Juve
My thoughts on the game, Once Montolivo came on Darmian was more involved they linked up well Okaka had better touches than Pelle and doesn't get knocked off the ball, he's a beast and his football sense and skills are decent Marchisio MOM for me. Great penalty and great assist to Gabbiadini today. Was a pretty good vice Pirlo today Alot if misplaced passes in the first half. Did alot better in the second half Gabbiadini great positional sense and football awareness by standing onside. On the goal you can see him get in position just before Marchisio flicks/volleys the ball towards him. Florenzi is a livewire. Guy reminds me a mix between Zambrotta and Perrotta. Lol at Sirigu and his ISIS beard. Growing that thing on PSG's bench, further cementing his spot to the Azzurri bench today Loved SES play on the left hand side. Has to be better in front of goal though. MDS didn't play today but he sure looked like he was on the field, the ref at some angles looked like that Milan glass man
Some of Romania's passing through the midfield made Italy look as though they were playing Spain. That's what you get with a 4 - 2 - 4.
