Rome, 8 June (LaPresse) – "Norway has grown exponentially and is now one of the strongest teams around. Today, it represents extraordinary quality. At the moment, it is stronger than us. You can lose, but you have to understand how you lose. A different approach that stirred up that fire inside, which Gigi Buffon often refers to, could and should have led to a different outcome. Understanding how you lose is something I cannot accept." These were the words of FIGC president Gabriele Gravina, speaking about the Azzurri's defeat in Oslo against Norway at the Serie A Festival in Parma. ‘Our league has left us with exhausted players. Many players arrived just a few days before departure; you can't prepare for a match against a powerhouse in such a short time. There is no rift, there is just a lack of clarity due to physical fatigue,’ added Gravina.
