Italy is already looking forward to next Wednesday's match in Rome against Switzerland, who have returned from 1-1 with Wales. The satisfaction for the exciting European debut against Turkey marked by three goals was clouded in the blue clan by the concern for the illness that struck Eriksen during the Denmark-Finland, up to the relief deriving from the news that speak of stable conditions of the midfielder Danish Inter. At the National team, in the meantime, confidence is growing for Marco Verratti: the midfielder in Coverciano, where the Azzurri arrived from Rome around 2.30 am, played twenty minutes in the test with Pescara's Primavera for two halves of 30 'each, finished 6-0, Bernardeschi, Belotti and Chiesa scored while Raspadori, Cristante and Pessina scored in the second half.The PSG midfielder wore the jersey of the Abruzzo team in which he played from 2008 to 2012 and the signs were defined as encouraging after the collateral injury in the knee remedied a month ago. After missing the opening race of the European Championship, it is not excluded at the moment that Verratti may be called up for Italy's second race scheduled for June 16. The Azzurri who took to the field with Turkey did some unloading work, some in the swimming pool, while for the match Mancini fielded the players who were not employed or who had entered the race in progress (except for Di Lorenzo): Meret between the posts, Toloi , Acerbi, Bastoni and Emerson in defense, Pessina, Cristante and Castrovilli in the middle, Bernardeschi, Belotti and Chiesa forward.Other blues were included in the Pescara spring such as Sirigu, Raspadori (who later moved to the Azzurri formation) and precisely Verratti. In the pits Alessandro Florenzi came out at the end of the first half last night for a physical problem: the exams to which the player underwent in the morning in Florence showed an inflammatory muscle resentment in the right calf excluding injuries. Also under observation the conditions of Berardi, among the best with Turkey, but limped out. For Mancini, however, indications, starting from the opening match, that make us look forward with the right enthusiasm: flawless defense and goals, the blue group knows how to win and have fun. Now there is Switzerland second step of the group, the coach thinks of one game at a time, aims at the result,he does not want distractions and tries to make his orchestra sound better. Always with an eye on Wembley, the ultimate goal.
