The rumours Severus Snape will play Andrea Pirlo are simply not true
There is no Gianluigi Buffon, Giorgio Chiellini, Andrea Pirlo, and Mauro Camoranesi to look up to in the match against New Zealand.
But Marcelo Lippi is not looking for excuses.
“We have everything to lose. The worst thing is feeling sorry for ourselves thinking about who is missing. The team has grown. We have to play ball with speed and skill. “
Andrea Pirlo is expected back into the team on Monday and Gianluigi Buffon is improving every day. So the Azzurri can look forward to getting the services of these two players if they get out of their group.
