Personally and the whole world is dreaming, and I am sure that it will only be an advantage for the World Cup for Italy to play against England after the disqualification of Iran. As far as I understand, Italy ranks first in the FIFA rankings among those who have not qualified,” Zampolli said.
Recall that the Italian national team lost to North Macedonia (0:1) in the playoffs.
