The number 1 of the FIGC Gabriele Gravina speaks slowly. The disappointment for the premature exit from the German European Championship is palpable. Then he expresses himself slowly: “There are many reflections that overlap. We are all a little disappointed for not having been able to give all the Italian fans the result we wanted. We are disappointed for the result but in sport, defeat happens. What unfortunately remains is the disappointment for not having been able to demonstrate to those who followed us everything that has been done. The disappointment for an inability to demonstrate what we have done remains”.

And again: “We have not demonstrated the character to make up for the shortcomings that unfortunately we have – says FIGC president Gravina -. Last night we shared responsibilities with everyone. We are all responsible. But we must continue to be so. We will do so without abandoning the path of a multi-year project that we believe in and which we inaugurated eight or nine months ago. There will be deep reflections and we will still spend time discussing with coach Spalletti. And we only have one way to start again With the strength of projects. I am pragmatic and I only believe in work. We must be clear and logical.” But also a harsh message to the Serie A clubs, who he said are responsible for not giving much space to the young Italians who are also winning in Europe and around the world: “We must valorise our young people, we cannot expect to win with little experience”.
