Roberto Mancini, Italy coach, commented on the victory over Hungary:

"We were excellent for 70 minutes. The last 20 I didn't like too much. We're happy; it's important to have reached the Nations League final four for the second time."

"It is important to have reached this milestone for the second time, but the previous results unfortunately remain. Let's say that we were good at restarting and setting up a group that has values on which you can work. The goal? It's bypassing the month of December."
