what channel? It's not on RAI :/ and I don't subscribe to ESPND....I guess i'll use ESPN3 if it comes down to it
Ya I can't seem to find it either. I thought it would be on RAI as all of Italy's friendlies are on there but maybe cause it's a Monday?
its in Italy... the friendlies that are in country are usually shown on RAI INTL... but maybe for some reason this one is not
It is on Rai Due tonight because of the elections, it is scheduled to be on Rai International though.
Sirigu, Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini; Candreva, Parolo, Thiago Motta, Giaccherini, El Shaarawy; Zaza, Immobile.
Immobile tried a half volley, missed and tumbled to ground. Trump's fault. Edit: Chago Moch thru ball, Immobile dummies and let's it thru to Zaza who gives him a nice one touch in return. Couldn't get a clear shot as some Finn Pukki(mon) was hugging him.
El Shaarawy just tried his trademark cut into the middle and go for the far side, but missed. I count three attempts on net, none hitting the target. All three looked rushed. Overall pretty bland in the final third so far. Possession maybe but lacking Finnish
You guys can watch the game here: http://www.stream2u.tv/watch/37994/3/Friendly-Match-Italy-vs-Finland.html We are looking ok. I am a little worried about our set pieces though. We haven't scored from them in a long time, but again this is not our first team. Florenzi will definitely be starting and can help with that and likely one of Insigne or Bernardeschi at least.
Half time stats: Italia 1 - 0 Finlandia Possession: Ita 67% - 33% Fin Shots (on goal): Ita 12(3) - 0(0) Fin Corner Kicks: Ita 5 - 1 Fin Crosses: Ita 8 - 0 Fin Fouls: Ita 3 - 6 Fin Offsides: Ita 2 - 2 Fin
Corners and free kicks have been terrible, good to see the hard work in Coverciano the past week is paying off. Che Figura di Merda
It seems kind of obvious to me that insigne should be taking all free kicks within shooting range. It seems like he is not going to be a starter though, so we have no threats from set pieces as far as shooting.
