Donadoni is thinking about the moves to overcome the shortcomings that emerged against Holland. Del Piero and Cassano are the main candidates for a title shirt, but almost certain are also the entrances of Chiellini instead of Materazzi (outside form) and De Rossi for Gattuso (in oxygen debt). Meanwhile, Federal President Abete tries to keep on the morals: "We have already gone uphill again with a defeat and an equal in qualifying, then we got back and reached the goal, hopefully it is so also in the final stage of this tournament.
A setback so bitter can be there, but there are all the conditions to go back. My presence here is to mean that the greatest support from all, needs unity of intent. We've got two games in our league, and we're focused on the target." Luca Toni loads the group in view of Romania: "We want to get up: with the three points everything will be fine.
We have not become scarce: the group is still united, it is the same that he won in Glasgow, who knows what he wants and goes in the same direction, we only wrong a first time. Ingenous criticism of Mr. Donadoni . I do not make a question of goals; if I sign it does not matter, indeed, I would like to put my companions in the condition of doing so. We have to win against Romania. Whether it's me or someone else doesn't count. For me, Buffon can put it in.
The fans must know that we are loaded, that we want to get up. The 3-0, on the contrary, joined us more. Now we have to win for Donadoni ". Meanwhile, the French national team, Domenech, irons on the 1-0 goal of Holland and gives reason to Italy: "I hope that next time a viewer behind the door will not be considered active".
