Dimarco reveals best quality Italy will need in World Cup play-off Final During his press conference at Coverciano today, Italy star Federico Dimarco said the Azzurri would mostly need ‘mental strength’ in the World Cup play-off Final against Bosnia and Herzegovina next week. Dimarco met reporters at Coverciano on Saturday, three days before the World Cup play-off Final against Bosnia and Herzegovina. Dimarco’s Italy press conference ahead of World Cup play-off Final “We expect a fiery atmosphere and a team that has the same desire to qualify for the World Cup,” said the Inter defender via TMW.
“We need a bit of everything. We’ve been missing at the World Cup for too long, and we absolutely want to earn qualification because we deserve it. “This is a group that has fun together.
We must take it. We must be mentally strong. We know the environment, but if we stay in the game for the full 95 minutes, I believe we’ll take it home.
” When asked about the “best quality” the Azzurri will need to show in Zenica on Tuesday, Dimarco replied: “Mental strength. After a somewhat tense first half and Retegui’s missed opportunity, we didn’t get discouraged. “One might have started seeing the ghosts, but instead, we stayed there; we scored the first goal and then killed it off with Moise.
We remained focused for the whole 90 minutes. “In the end, it’s the head that controls the legs; we know we’ll face a strong team,” he continued.
