This is the question Roberto Mancini knew he had to answer in the post-match press conference for Italy-Belgium. And the Italian coach has no doubts in stating that<b> <\/b>The good things were seen in the first 25 minutes of the second half. &quot;We were very aggressive, winning back all the second balls and not conceding anything.&quot; Admitting that we must avoid the mistake of forcing the game when there&#039;s no space, Mancini explains what happened in the first half. &quot;We gave too much space to a strong team that played better. And on the second goal, we left the field too open.&quot; For the coach, sixty minutes aren&#039;t enough time to evaluate the attacking trident&#039;s performance. &quot;It was Pio Esposito&#039;s first time with Moise and Cambiaghi on the wings; at Inter, he has a different way of playing.&quot; The boos raining down from the stands reflect the mood of a nation weighed down by the three World Cups from which Italy was excluded. The boos are understandable for Mancini, who is confident of a strong finish to the journey that has just begun. Finally, there&#039;s also time for an analysis of the midfielders, with Tonali potentially adapting to a playmaker role.
