Italy Fail To Qualify For World Cup First time in 60 years by deji17(op):
Italy fail to qualify for World Cup for second time in their history after San Siro stalemate against Sweden
The Azzurri, four-time champions of football's pinnacle tournament, will be spectators at Russia 2018

Sweden 0 vs Italy 0

Sweden qualifies on 1 : 0 aggregate

Sweden are going to the World Cup finals in Russia at the expense of four-time champions Italy after a stalemate at the San Siro.

It was an Italian onslaught in the second half with chances coming thick and fast.


But the visitors held on, leaving Jakob Johansson's lone strike in the first leg enough to send the Swedes through to next year's tournament.

This is the first time since 1958, and the second time in their history, that Italy has failed to qualify for football's blue riband event.

As a United fan, i feel for darmian. See him sad. Truth is Italy have no more attackers. All they got is defence. No midfield or forward.

Ni pirlo, inzaghi, balotelli, nobody that's a top notch striker or forward to save them. Their FA should do something asap and try to groom more home bred or indegene forwards instead of signing internationals up and down for their big clubs like juventus and co.

Buffon has played his last match for his country. He's one of the best GK the football world has ever produced. A true mountain of a man, a legenddd!!!!
