Former Italian national team striker and living legend of Milan's "Inter" Christian Vieri commented on the failure of the Italian national team.
After the unsuccessful qualification for the World Cup, the problems of the Italian national team are widely discussed, with most blame falling on Gian Piero Ventura. However, he claimed to have achieved one of the best results in the last 40 years and only lost two matches.
Vieri himself understands how much football means to Italy and compared their failed qualification to the US national team.
"At least the US has NBA and NFL. In Italy, there is only football and pasta. We don't have anything else," Vieri said.
However, Vieri, who has played for a team coached by Ventura, did not rush to criticize the strategist.
