The pre-retreat of Mancini's Italy ended with a friendly match against Cagliari's Primavera side, who chose Sardinia for the first part of the preparations for the Nations League. The Azzurri scored 12 goals: three goals from Raspadori and braces for Retegui, Chiesa and Zaniolo.

Pellegrini, Immobile and Locatelli also scored. After a couple of days of rest, the Azzurri will meet again on Sunday afternoon in Coverciano, where from Monday they will return to training in view of the Nations League finals. Compared to the pre-retirement period, Baschirotto, Buongiorno, Florenzi, Gatti, Locatelli and Zaccagni will not be there, while the five Inter players will join the group: Acerbi, Bastoni, Darmian, Dimarco and Barella are engaged tomorrow night in Istanbul in the final Champions League.

The Forte Village of Santa Margherita di Pula hosted the national team two years ago at the beginning of the long journey that would then lead them to the triumph of Euro 2020.

Furthermore, yesterday, the representatives of the FIGC partner companies took part in the usual workshop organized by the Federation with the companies that support the national team.
