Putting my Italian hat on for a minute I would add not only is it a friendly, but it is incredibly early for our lads. Italian based players are barely out the blocks as far as pre-season goes.
Most importantly it was a shadow squad, a B team at best. None of the WC squad were included bar the third choice keeper. Seven players made their debut, and really it has no business being listed as an international.
