Turks are the most serious opponent for Italy in this group. Dunno why did Casiraghi decide to rest his best player in this match.
He should have done that vs the USA. They are the worst team in this group.

Actually, i'm pleasantly surprised by Lanzafame.
Perfect ball control, very good tecnhique and he moves all the time. One moment he's on the right side and the next moment he's operating on the left side. He also scored a very nice goal.

Now he's injured :D

This is just a warmup tournament, he's just testing every player. Also a lot of those players are regulars in Serie A, which ended less than a week ago. Some of them might really need a rest.

Anyway, this was really dire to watch. :D Just terrible.

Lanzafame looked quite good, but rushed everything, like everbody did really. Lanzafame is a bit like a more direct Palladino.

Marchisio has good vision and awereness, he plays with his head up like Zanetti. Marchisio managed to pick out passes with only one or two touches. Passes that make the team tick better and increases the team's pace. He lost the ball a few times though.
