1:23 – 1:25 ?????
This is not a disaster. This is how qualification works. If the Italians were serious about qualifying they would invest in youth and not depend on older, extremely skilled players that pretty much everyone knows what is in their skill set. The complaining I have read by players claiming the method of qualifying isn't fair is sour grapes. Play better. Stop making excuses.
Gab bruh take it easy man ?
Wasn't Jorginho in the running to win the balon do'r? Football moves lightning quick
Disaster for the whole world? Italians do live in their own little world, don't they? They didn't play 2018 and the tournament continued just fine, I support italy but arrogance is gross.
Let it go already
It's never a disaster?? you wish boy???
If Italy would have qualified, the rest of the countries would have to be worried. They are a tournament team.
Gab needs to start exercising ?
i dont think its fair that 50% of the south american countries make it to the world cup and only 25%of european countries
Italy’s reaction to not qualifying in the WC summed up at 1:20 ?
No, it is not!! If you ain't got it, you are not there, period!!
No it's not.
I honestly think Italy only won the Euros because France were not at their best at the tournament. Had Italy played France in the semi final I think they would have lost in 90 minutes.
Really? They (Italy) constantly dive, time-waste, gamesmanship, negative football… Who's going to miss that?
Italy is a definition of anti football, always has been, apart from the AC Milan of the early 90's, they play negative football ?
Not a disaster what they deserve
Listen, they drew Portugal so what ever they still lose later and stay at home
balotelli should have played
I've noticed that when a European league (PL, La Liga, Serie A) does well it correlates to the national team. If you look at the early 2000's, Serie A was very strong with teams like AC Milan winning champions leagues. In the Late 2000's early 2010's Barcelona and La Liga lead the way and it correlated into success for the Spanish National team. Mid 2010's you had the Bundesliga doing well with Bayern and Dortmund which saw success for the German National team. And now you have the Premier League dominating which is also showed dividend's in the English National team. All in all what I'm trying to get at is the reason why the Italian National side is starting to fall apart is because the Serie A has become a weak league and time has caught up to players like Chiellini who cant inspire the squad like they did in the Euros.
Not a disaster…they were simply not good enough
Give it to UEFA, they will make sure Italy qualifies everytime through "Co-efficient"
???❤????
USA 2022 World Cup Champions ??
I don't think anybody cares apart from Italy
It’s not a disaster for the world it’s a disaster for pizzaland, as an Englishman i am laughing
Dirtiest team in the euros (most fouls) will not be missed.
Italy have a garage square it's kit Mancini mistake
Is Frank the least prepared FC "pun-dit"? It is always very easy to counter him.
How is it a disaster for world football? Italy are just another team
They should have used Sassuolo players
Meh..It's not that deep..
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA
NO IT IS NOT
HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA
Feeling bad for these pundits
They were expecting Italy to beat Portugal so that they can smash Ronaldo ???
don't hype it too much.. if they lost then they're not meant to go just try again
I don't get it whats to miss with Italy they haven't played a Ko game at the world cup since 06 that's almost 20yrs
No, no Frank, you're wrong. It is not a disaster at all, to any world, footballing or not. North Macedonia wanted it more, obviously Italy went into it thinking it was going to be easy!
Gab that cough looked serious my guy
Brah gabs gasp ?
Euro Champions. How many nations would choose that over going to the WC ? Yup
