Gattuso out of Hungary test Wednesday 22 August, 2007
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gennaro Gattuso is out of this evening’s international friendly with Hungary after suffering a muscular problem.
The Milan midfielder pulled up during training with a twinge in his thigh and it is highly unlikely he will be risked for this Italy test.
It’s believed his place in Budapest will be taken by Rossoneri teammate Massimo Ambrosini, flanking Andrea Pirlo in a 4-2-3-1 system.
Alessandro Del Piero is tipped to start in the supporting trident with Fabio Quagliarella and Roma debutant Alberto Aquilani behind Bayern Munich sensation Luca Toni.
This is the final Azzurri match before the crucial Euro 2008 qualifier against France on September 8 at San Siro.
Italy (probable): Buffon; Oddo, Cannavaro, Materazzi, Zambrotta; Ambrosini, Pirlo; Quagliarella, Aquilani, Del Piero; Toni
