"This is the second time we have reached the final phase of the Nations League, and I think it's a great thing. We got here with a group of young players and we were in a very difficult group, so it's good.

We are already evolving. We played in all the Nations League qualifiers with a lot of new players, young players. We are changing, and we will reach the Euros with some changes in the squad," Mancini was quoted as saying by UEFA's official website.
