The Blue Storm crushed defending champions Italy in Berlin
The sky above the Olympia Stadium in Berlin is filled with a lingering melancholy, the former king, in the round of 16 of the 2024 European Championships, was completely defeated by the Swiss team's fierce attack, the score of 0-2 is so dazzling, so cruel, the "blue team" Italy's dream was ruthlessly shattered
At the beginning of the game, the Swiss team showed their momentum of self-defeating, their desire to win can be clearly felt from every scramble, every pass, on the other hand, the Italian team, it seems that they have not yet come out of the aura of the defending champions, under the onslaught of the Swiss team, it seems a little flustered and overwhelmed
In the first half, Switzerland took the lead, and Italy lacked attack
In the 35th minute of the game, the Swiss team seized a mistake in the Italian team's backline and pierced Donnarumma's ten fingers with a precise push shot by Shaqiri, which completely ignited the passion of the Swiss team and made the Italian team fall into a huge passivity
Although the Italian team tried to launch a counterattack in the second half, the solid defense of the Swiss team made them useless, and the attack that the Italian team was once proud of seemed helpless in the face of the Swiss team's tight defensive system, but the Swiss team, with sharp counterattacks, constantly threatened the Italian team's goal
At the beginning of the second half, Italy suffered another heavy blow, and Ancelotti shook his head helplessly
Heading into the second half, Italy were hoping to turn the tide and fate seemed to play a cruel game against them, as Switzerland made a comeback just one minute into the opening period, causing chaos in the Italian penalty area and eventually making it 2-0 through Embolo
Ancelotti, the head coach of the Italian team standing on the sidelines, could only shake his head helplessly, the legendary coach who has led countless giant clubs to glory, and at this moment he cannot stop the Italian team from going to the abyss of failure
Italian football is not in good shape, and Carlo Ancelotti has bluntly said that the team lacks top stars
In the post-match press conference, Carlo Ancelotti could not hide his disappointment, admitting that the current Italian team lacks the top stars who can determine the direction of the game as in the past, and there is a lack of players who can be at the top of world football in other positions except goalkeeper Donnarumma
Ancelotti's words undoubtedly hit the sore spot of Italian football, in recent years, Italian football talent has withered, and the new generation of players lacks leaders like Pirlo, Totti, and Buffon who can support the backbone of the team
Switzerland advanced to the last eight to challenge England and Italy, and the future of Italian football is still a long way to go
The 2-0 scoreline sent the Swiss to the last eight, where they will face the winner between England and Slovakia in the next round, and for Italian football, the defeat was undoubtedly a blow to the face, making them realize the gap between themselves and the top European teams
How to cultivate more outstanding young players and how to revive the majesty of Italian football is a difficult problem facing the Italian Football Federation and all Italian footballers
The future of the "Blue Cos" will require more time and patience
Rome was not built in a day, and the road to the revival of Italian football is destined to be full of thorns and bumps, but we believe that as long as Italian football can face up to the problems, strengthen their beliefs, and try their courage, they will be able to get out of the trough and return to the top of the world
Come on, Italian football!
