Italy, Ventura: "The defeats don't tell the whole truth"

As reported by ANSA, Gian Piero Ventura has decided to send a message to the Azzurri fans: "The losses don't tell the whole truth. I'll be the first one to start cheering: I wish my successor the best of luck to bring back Italy where it deserves to be. The past few days have difficult and disappointing: it has been a feeling of emptiness when we failed to qualify for the World Cup. Managing the national team filled with a sense of belonging and pride because there is nothing greater. I worked by giving everything with seriousness and professionalism: I didn't succeed in what I wanted to do, but I will not stop thanking the group of players."
