Tonali: We didn’t play well enough in this game, it would be helpful if we beat Norway in the last game

In the European World Cup qualifiers held early this morning, Italy defeated Moldova 2-0 away from home. After the game, Italian midfielder Tonali accepted an interview with Sky Sports.

Facing this weak opponent, Italy only scored two goals at the last minute.

This is not easy, but I think it is normal for this kind of game to occur in football. We also learned the results of Norway's current World Cup qualifying round before the game... It was a strange game, but in the end we won. There are a lot of player changes during the game, which can affect concentration. We need to win and play well, and we didn't do much today, but we're moving forward and we're going through a great process. It’s easy for outsiders to judge, but you have to experience it yourself. In the end this win was important for us, but not for the position in the table.

You will face Norway in the last round of World Cup qualifying. Will winning help you mentally?

will be of great help. While it can't heal our own wounds, it can help us move forward and end the World Cup in a better way. We lost to Norway away from home and bounced back after a setback. When you lose, you have to learn to take the pain and that's what we did.

The next game will be held at the San Siro Stadium. How do you feel about returning there?

It's very exciting, the last time I went back to the San Siro was almost three years ago... I always feel that way whenever I go back there in my career. Although I can't say that this time it will feel like the first time I go back, but every time I go back it is as special as the second time.
