Barzagli stated that he has a firm belief in his heart that this is not the end of the Euro road for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Italy-c2926, while admitting that there is a good chance that it could happen.

While talking to the press, the 31-year-old said:
“I am not remotely considering the possibility we’ll be going home. We know that there is the chance, but we are not thinking about it. We only have to focus on winning our match against Ireland, then we’ll see what happens in Gdansk. If we do well and beat
Ireland, then I am convinced we’ll get through to the next round.”
