where to see the last match in the group on TV – Corriere.it

The technical commissioner Paolo Nicolato flaunts serenity on the eve. His Under 21 against Norway will play the passage to the quarter-finals and, probably, the qualification for the Paris 2024 Olympics. He does so starting from a defeat – contested – against France and from the victory – painful – against Switzerland.

In group D in the standings i blue have 6 points, Italy and Switzerland 3 and Norway 0. In theory, Italy goes through if they don’t lose, achieving at least the same result as the Swiss against France (draw in the event of a draw, victory in the event of a victory), but still exposed to the risk of a biscuit that would be rather indigestible: a success, no matter by what margin, while Switzerland imposes itself with a single goal difference and scoring more than 2 goals at the same time (3-2 , 4-3 or 5-4). In this case, for the separate classification they would go to the French and Swiss quarterfinals). At the Under level, Italy remembers 2015 well, thanks to Portugal and Sweden. The senior national team well remembers that Let’s draw 2-2 between Denmark and Sweden (again) in 2004.

Nicholasfor, we said, serene: I said from the start that this would be a difficult group — remember — there’s great quality and they’re all matches you can’t expect to dominate from start to finish. There’s a great balance, we’ll play our cards: with this ranking right, we’re all high-level teams. Next to the coach is Pietro Pellegri, already a goal against France and only 45′ against Switzerland: We have studied Norway in recent days, they have great dribbling and physicality, but we must concentrate on our strengths.

In Norway there will be no talent of talents, by birth belonging to the Under, but already a permanent starter in the senior national team: A center forward like Erling Haaland doesn’t make it up every day, Nicolato smiles. In the field he should field the same 11 seen against Switzerland, with Pellegri and Gnonto in front and with Bove confirmed in the middle of the field, and with Pirola who, in central defense, will have to contend with his teammate in Salernitana Erik Botheim, the giant who collected one goal and three assists in 28 appearances in the last Italian championship.

Italy-Norway, scheduled for this evening, will be broadcast live on Rai 1 starting at 20.35, immediately after Tg1, with comments by Luca De Capitani and Katia Serra, interventions on the sidelines by Andrea Riscassi and the presentation studio, on lawn of the Cluj Arena, with Simona Rolandi and Antonio Di Gennaro.
