Matteo Darmian felt Italy had the right attitude against England “to trouble anyone.”

The Azzurri had taken the lead through Graziano Pellè, but were pegged back to a 1-1 draw by Andros Townsend.

“We put in a good performance and made life difficult for the English players,” Torino wing-back Darmian told Rai Sport.

Matteo Darmian felt Italy had the right attitude against England “to trouble anyone.”

The Azzurri had taken the lead through Graziano Pellè, but were pegged back to a 1-1 draw by Andros Townsend.

“We put in a good performance and made life difficult for the English players,” Torino wing-back Darmian told Rai Sport.

“We are on the right track. We had chances to double our lead and we went out there with determination. With that attitude we can trouble anyone.

“I think Italy can improve and we are trying. Antonio Conte is bringing in his ideas and tonight we tried to follow the Coach’s directives.”

Darmian can play on the right or left, so which flank does he prefer?

“On the right I can make the most of my natural foot, but I’ve been playing on the left for a year now. Either way it doesn’t make much difference, the important thing is to do well for the Nazionale.”
