  • 10' Supporters expect more eagerness from Matteo Darmian, as he is very good at scoring at Olympiastadion with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 15' Davide Frattesi has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 38 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 20' It looks like no one’s ball. Italy is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
