Croatia and Italy arrive at the last match of the group with the following moods: the Slavs must win to go through, while the Azzurri need a draw. A challenge that therefore promises to be tense and open to any outcome. He spoke about this match Igor Tudorin an interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport.
What match will Croatia-Italy be?
“First of all I hope that Croatia wins. Having expressed the hope of the Tudor fan, as a coach I think it will be a very difficult match because we have to win, while Italy has two results in their favor out of three. A significant advantage.. .”.
What do you think of Spalletti?
“He is one of the best coaches in the world and on a tactical level he is very good at preparing matches. I always hear that months or even years of work are needed to express a certain type of football. It’s all bullshit! And the proof is Spalletti himself: at leader of the national team in a few months has given a determined game and a winning mentality to the team. Previously he had achieved a miracle with the championship won in Naples. Strong coaches have an impact in a short time. Antonio Conte is another example.
Who could be the protagonists tonight?
“Chiesa is a “different” player: someone who has a lot of talent, who is always dangerous when he has space. In Croatia I say Modric and I hope for a goal from him.”
