Pride and pain spur Motta onward
by Paolo Menicucci from Milan
Friday 5 June 2009
Captain Marco Motta believes Italy have "enormous potential" as the Azzurrini
finalise their preparations for the 2009 UEFA European Under-21 Championship
in Sweden.
Serie A sharpness
"I'm certain that we are a very good team," said the right-back, who spent
the first part of the season at Udinese Calcio and the second at AS Roma. "We
are more mature than ever because most of the players have been getting
first-team games at their clubs. This is a key factor in becoming a winning
team at this level. We have enormous potential and I'm proud to be the
captain."
Serbia first
By far the most successful nation in the competition, with five victories in
the nine most recent U21 championships, Pierluigi Casiraghi's side will meet
Sweden, Belarus and Serbia in Group A. First up is a 16 June meeting with
Serbia, who beat Italy 1-0 in their first game of what proved to be a
disappointing 2007 finals campaign.
"There are two years of hard work at stake"Marco Motta
'It still hurts'
"We have to make amends for that defeat against Serbia because it still
hurts," Motta, 23, said. "This time around we have to start on the right
foot. We are Italy and we always have to try to win every game we play. This
must be our main strength in the tournament. There are two years of hard work
at stake and we don't want to waste them as we did two years ago."
