The Stadium Is &Nbsp Away From The Sea; Italy's First Battle Is Equipped With Longer Spikes.

After sunset, the Green Point stadium is like a shining pearl on the the Atlantic coast. Similarly, perhaps Italy, who wears the world cup champions' aura, will shine on Monday night to welcome Paraguay's challenge.

Beijing time on Sunday morning, that is, Saturday afternoon local time, Italy team completed the last training before the base to complete the first battle, Lippi only opened 15 minutes courtesy to reporters, followed by closed training. At 11 a.m. local time on Sunday, the blue shirts will fly to Cape Town via chartered plane and go to Green Point stadium to adapt to the venue that evening. At the end of Monday night, it is expected that Italy will not stay at around 1 a.m., and then fly back to the training base by chartered plane to return to the training base. It will be nearly 3 o'clock in the morning. This arrangement is Lippi's insistence, and is said to have learned from the successful experience of the German World Cup. In fact, in the warm-up of early June, Lippi tried to adapt the rhythm to the whole team. After losing to Mexico in Brussels, she flew back to Turin that night and drove back to camp for more than 1 hours to sleep.

In addition to the schedule, the Italy team is elaborately planning on their appliances. Because of the distance from the sea, the Green Point course is not only green but also damp. During the first World War in France, many players fell down on wet turf, and even the Japanese referees were not spared. Lippi's coach team obviously noticed this characteristic, which has been increased in training, and may be extended with tacks.

There is still a lot of doubt about the staffing arrangements. The Milan sports daily also asserted that nine people had made the first round, but now there are four or five queries. In Saturday's tactical training group confrontation, Ma Qiao appeared in the main force while Chiellini returned to the middle road to partner with Cannavaro, and Zambrotta stayed in the left side. It can be seen that Chiellini, who was identified by the media as playing the left back, was supposed to return to central defender one day before. Although his left move has been drills by Lippi for nearly two weeks. Doubt comes from the side, "using the more aggressive macho Zambrotta wings, or a more robust Zambrotta Kerry Sito combination, depends on Lippi's final decision." Milan Sports Daily said.

De Rossi in the midfield is basically recovering, and there is nothing serious about participating in the joint training, but the state is normal. He has the greatest possibility of starting the match with Gattuso and Gattuso, but it is possible for him to overtake Gattuso and Marchisio. On the front line, the Italian gold boots, danta Lai, have been in a state of mediocrity for nearly two or three days. They are considered to be sitting on the bench by the Milan sports daily. There is no doubt about the position of Gilardino center. Iaquinta, Pepe, Quagliarella and Carlo Gore are two.
