Lippi Explains Cassano Exclusion
8/16/2005 7:35:00 AM
According to the Italian national team coach, the Roma forward is not at the top of his form.
With less than a year to go for the next World Cup, Marcello Lippi will not be experimenting with players as he did in the previous months, but will try to consolidate a group of players. "From now on there will not be space for enlarged squads. From now on I must think about building the squad, and all of them must feel tense. For this reason I will not substitute Totti: whoever comes would feel like his second and no one is like that here." Lippi shed the light on Antonio Cassano's omission from the list of called-up players for Wednesday's encounter against Eire. "He's no at the top and during this period he's not serene. But he will be back for the next matches." 里皮承认,托蒂是不可替代的,同时他表示,卡萨诺目前并不在最佳的状态,但他会在下一场比赛里出现。 |
