Italy has been drawn into an elite round qualifying group for next summer's Under-17 European championships with England, Russia, and Bulgaria. Italy was way down in Pot 3 for the draw, based on results from the qualifying round (Italy qualified with only 5 pts from its 3 matches and was the last team in Pot 3).

Only the group-winner will advance (I'm sure of it this time! ) to the finals in Luxembourg, which take place May 3-14, 2006.

The elite round will take place in one of the four nations sometime next spring.

The friendly with Romania finished 2-2. Italy gave up two PKs in the second half to lose their 2-0 halftime lead, on goals scored by Della Penna and Tagliani (the latter a pk).
