Prandelli: Italy has no target in Euro 2012

5.07.2012

Italy coach Cesare Prandelli admitted that he has no idea how far can go  "Squadra Azzurri" of the starting Euro 2012. Prandelli said that the team started the tournament with no clear purpose.

"Frankly, I'm really curious to see whether we have a team good enough to do something in this tournament. I do not have targets. Classification for Euro 2012 was our goal, but the way they have made it make us very happy, because nobody was expecting us to play at such a high level, "said Prandelli.

"Since then we had problems with injuries and players who did not pass the expectations and this leaves us to wonder whether we can play a certain way and be major players in this tournament," added the expert.

Italy starts the tournament with a match against Spain on June 10 and the other teams in the group are Croatia and Ireland.
