Donnarumma: "This Italy has the spirit of Euro 2020"
The goalkeeper's charge: "We will suffer against France, but we are ready"

Gianluigi Donnarumma, captain of Italy
"It's a special match, we will have great support. It will be exciting, we can't wait to face an evening like this in front of so many fans. We want to entertain them." This is what the national team goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma had to say ahead of the match against France. Donnarumma charged up the atmosphere, explaining the Azzurri's surge after the European Championship: "I think the difference is being made by the group, in addition to the coach and the staff. Spalletti has found the right medicine to put us back in placeor, Italy is back to being Italy. After the disappointment, a change of direction was needed. As I always tell the team, the difficult thing is to continue with the performances. Now the goal is to work, have fun and make people have fun. The group is healthy, I'm reviewing the spirit of the old European. This shirt is special and makes you give 300%". A comment also on the opponents, with Deschamps who will not have the star at his disposal Mbappe: "I expect a team with a few absences, but we know their quality, the substitutes and the whole squad - Donnarumma explained -. They will be angry about the result of the last match and what we did in France. We had little time to prepare and there will be suffering, because they are a technical group with great pace. Kylian's absence will be important, I know him. He is one of the strongest in the world, but there will certainly be other players of great quality and with a big leg, like Barcelona".
