Italy coach Roberto Mancini said on Sunday that winning trophies was more important than achieving records as Italy extended their undefeated run to 30 games with a 1-0 win over Wales.
Italy have won 25 and drawn five going back to September 2018, matching the record set under two-time World Cup-winning coach Vittorio Pozzo between 1935 and 1939. “It’s nice to have equalled a legend like Pozzo. But he has more important trophies than the 30 games,” said Mancini. “We are happy because all the players had a great game and changing eight players at kick-off, it was not necessarily an obvious thing to do.
