At 00:00 on June 30, Switzerland VS Italy in the Round of 16 of the European Championship. There were two “surprising” changes in Italy’s starting lineup, and Spalletti also explained why he started Fagioli and Salernitana.
Juventus’ young midfielder Fagioli got his first start, while Salernitana joined the attack with Chiesa and Scamacca to form the front three.
Spalletti said: “Obviously, Fagioli will be the central midfielder. He’s young, but he has everything to become a top player in that position. Cristante will be on his right, while Barella will be on his left. Barella has been tasked with pressing their midfielder, Xhaka.”
“In attack, we have two wingers, one who can attack more, and the other, like Salernitana, who can always help the team defensively. He’s now mature enough to be part of this team.”
