Lippi: Today only 35% of Italian players in Serie A, Mancini's job is encountering huge difficulties - DayDayNews

Live it on October 11th. The Italian coach Lippi has made great achievements at the club and national team level. At an event, he talked about his coaching career penalty shootout and the Italian national team. And the battle for the Serie A championship.

About the penalty shootout experienced in my coaching career

In my coaching career, I have the opportunity to end three major tournaments with penalty shootouts. The first was the 1996 Champions League final against Ajax . To be honest, we should have won the game earlier. When the referee's whistle blew, all the players ran towards me. They all wanted to take a penalty kick. I had a strong feeling that the players wanted to win the game. The second was the 2003 UEFA Champions League final, which was a dull match. Before the penalty kick, the players were not active, and in the end we also suffered a loss. The third is the World Cup final . What happened in 1996 happened again. This will also affect the mentality. Penalties are not just about buying lottery tickets. When Trezeguet took the penalty kick, I think he owed me something because of his mistake in 2003.

About Mancini coached by the Italian national team

The real change in Italian football is reflected in the national team, where 8-9 foreign players can always play in the club. Mancini did a very good job, because he faced great difficulties. When I coached the national team, Serie A had 35% of foreign players, and now only 35% of Italian players.

Mancini took some risky actions. He allowed some young players to appear in the national team. Some players had not made their debut in the club when they were called up by the national team. He released a message to the club. In addition, we would also like to thank the Italian coach and Julić (Torino coach) for allowing their team to play a wonderful game.More and more head coaches let their teams play more proactively.

About the Serie A title fight

In terms of the facts we have seen, Milan, Naples and Inter are more recognized. Juve are catching up with these teams and we cannot exclude them too soon.
