Even though they haven’t won a World Cup title since Spain 82, the Italian team will always be a strong card in the tournament; they were close to obtain the title in US 94 when they lost to Brazil by penalties.

Marcello Lippi Even though this is his first World Cup, he has a good record in international matches. In mid 2004, he took the job.
