Italy midfielder Sandro Tonali shared his thoughts ahead of the upcoming UEFA Nations League clash against Turkey. The match is set to kick off at 18:45 UTC today.

“I believe many were disappointed with our performance against Belgium. We need to have an honest conversation about the consequences of that defeat, from the fans’ boos to the somber faces in the dressing room. However, we must accept it because the game did not go well, and we deserved to lose.

Right now, it’s crucial for us to respond. The team is very strong and includes many young players. It’s difficult to achieve everything immediately, especially since we don’t have a star player. We need to spend time together, work hard, and enjoy playing as a unit. Over time, our qualities will shine through,” the player expressed.
