The Italian national team is preparing even more for the big moment of European football, in the hope that it will become its huge moment.
The regional team, who will meet England at the Wembley Stadium in the Euro final (Sunday, 22:00, Network 13), dream of winning a second cup, after doing so for the first and last time so far, in 1968 after a 2-0 victory in the final over Yugoslavia.
Coach Roberto Mancini is expected to keep the squad that defeated Spain by the penalty spot in the semi-finals.
The veteran and captain of the Italians Giorgio Chiellini is already in a frenzy ahead of a dream swing: "It's a dream that for three years the coach drilled into our heads and eventually became a reality", Kylini commented on the final of the team that failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup. "When Mancini started talking to us about winning the Euros, we thought he was crazy. And here we are, right here, within touching distance of the trophy."

The veteran defender also referred to the fact that all the teams that made up the house of death were eliminated in the quarter-finals: "We were sure we would face France in the semi-finals, not Spain. The French had all the necessary qualities and international experience to succeed. So I assumed that our way to the final would be through Belgium, France and England. "
About the opponent in the final, Cagliani said: "From the beginning I thought England would take seriously winning the Euros. They have qualities, they are physical and play in an organized way. They may not play the most beautiful to the eye, but it is difficult to beat them."
On England striker Harry Kane: "He is a player I have always appreciated. I remember in his first international match in Turin he made a very good impression on me immediately. I got to play quite a bit against Tottenham, so I know him well."
"The pressure is mostly on them."

Regional midfielder Marco Verratti also commented on the final, believing that most of the pressure will be placed on the opponent's shoulders: "We watched the second semi-final all of us together," he shared.
"Rahim Sterling is a fantastic player who gets better every year."
On the penalty the English received against Denmark he said: "It was a very generous penalty, I would not have whistled it. It decided the game."
On the entire Three Lions team, Varati said: "England are a strong team, but they also do not lack players with high technical ability. They have not won a title in the world, so the pressure is mainly on them. They deserve to be in the final, but we also really want the title." .
Verratti admitted that the home advantage would be in the hands of the English in light of the game in London, but made it clear that he and his teammates "intend to give it their all until the final whistle. We will not leave anything on the pitch".
