Prandelli: I'm not saying which team bothers us, or else risk surprises31-07-2011 |
"If I tell which team is our worst enemy, risking surprises later," said Italy coach Cesare Prandelli after the "Azzurri" is dropped in a qualifying group with Bulgaria in World Cup 2014.
World champions in 2006 and Bulgaria fell within the group "B" qualifications, which are even Denmark, Czech Republic, Armenia and Malta. Prandelli refused to name the team, which fears the most and just announced that Italy will chase the first place.
"We are Italy and our aim is to gain the qualification group. Who is our worst enemy? If you say one team, risking a surprise later, "said the Italian tactician.
Despite the fiasco of the last Italian World Cup in South Africa, Prandelli prefers to focus on closer as a team challenges to date. "We focus on our qualifying group for the European Championship. Our goal is to be ready for this challenge. There are several months until the start of World Cup qualifiers, but this phase is clear in our name, our goal is to win the group, "said Prandelli.
