“It was a great victory because the boys never gave up, each one giving their best. I could mention them all, from first to last. We live a magic inside the locker room”. Thus the coach Gianmarco Pozzecco after the success against Georgia which allowed the Azzurri to detach the pass for the World Cup. “I dedicate the World Cup qualification to president Petrucci, with whom I have shared a lot in recent weeks.
