Italian midfielder Bryan Cristante recently analyzed Italy’s 1-0 defeat by Spain in an interview broadcast on UEFA channels. Cristante expressed his frank opinion on his team’s performance and Spain’s strength in this crucial match.
“They played much better than us and deserved to win,” said Cristante, acknowledging Spain’s superiority. He added: “We couldn’t get going again because they kept us down. They dominated, but Spain are always like that: they break you down with dribbling and possession.” Cristante also pointed to Italy’s missed opportunities: “We could have managed some counter-attacks better to create chances, but we didn’t and the result rewarded Spain.”
