 | The lineup of Italy for the battle with Sweden14-11-2017 |
Italy`s winner Zhang Piero Ventura has already elected his eleven for the match against Sweden. Tonight, one of the two teams will qualify for the world finals in Russia. The Italians have to catch up with one goal after the first meeting in Stockholm.
In many Apennine sites, the lineup of the `Azzurri` has already been released, although it has not been officially confirmed. Ventura again bet on 3-5-2, but also made several changes in the ranks of the squadra. At the door is Captain Canluigi Buffon, who is aiming at the sixth World Cup, which would be a record in the history of football. The defense is in a classical formation - Andrea Bardzali, Giorgio Chiellini and Leonardo Bonucci, the latter playing with a face mask.
On one flank stands Inter Antonio Candreva, who has seven goals for the national team. Next to him is Marco Parolo, followed by midfielder Napoli Jorginio, Alessandro Florenci and Matteo Darmian. In the attack Ventura relies on the goalie of Lazio Ciro Immobile and the attacker of Southampton Manolo Gabiadini who has only two hits on his account for Italy.
Italy (3-5-2): Buffon;Bardzali, Chiellini, Bonucci;Candrea, Parrolo, Giorgino, Florence, Darmian;Immobile, Gabidi.
