Capello: Italy's Third Consecutive World Cup Elimination a Disaster

Renowned Italian coach Fabio Capello gave a brief comment on the draw results for the FIFA World Cup. The draw took place on the evening of December 5.

"I sincerely hope Italy qualifies. Otherwise, I will simply cry.

Italy missing out on the World Cup for the third consecutive time would be a disaster. A 'Group of Death'?

One could call the group with Norway and France as such," the specialist told "Sovetskiy Sport" in an interview. To secure a place in the World Cup, Italy must first defeat Northern Ireland in the playoffs and then overcome the winner between Wales and Bosnia and Herzegovina.

If the Italians succeed, they will compete in Group "B" against Canada, Qatar, and Switzerland. Read “Zamin” on Telegram!
