World Cup, Donnarumma: “After such a great disappointment, turn the page with strength”

Milan, Apr. 1 (LaPresse) – “Last night, after the match, I cried. I cried for the disappointment of not being able to take Italy where it deserves to be. I cried for the immense sadness that I am feeling, together with the whole Azzurri group of which I am proud to be captain, and which I know, at this moment, you too, fans of our National team, are feeling.” This is how a message on Instagram by Gigio Donnarumma, captain of the National team, begins the day after the defeat against Bosnia on penalties and the exclusion from the World Cup. “Now words mean little, it’s true. But one thing I feel strongly inside and I want to share it with you: after such a great disappointment, we must find the courage to turn the page, once again. And to do so, we need a lot of strength, passion and conviction. Always believing, this is the engine to move forward. Because life knows how to reward those who give everything, without holding back. And this is where we must start again. Together. Once again. To bring Italy back to where it deserves to be,” added the Azzurri goalkeeper, who waited a night before expressing his disappointment.
