Italy’s starting XI is amazing but when they have been taken off they have not had the same quality come on
One of the most impressive aspects of Denmark’s run to the Euro 2020 semi-finals was the impact of our substitutions. In several of the games the Danish national team coach, Kasper Hjulmand, was able to use them to good effect and either regain the initiative or keep the upper hand.
You can certainly say the same about England. The players
England can bring on have made a huge difference – and it could give them the edge in the final. I don’t think Roberto Mancini has the same strength on the bench. The Italian starting XI is amazing but when they’ve been taken off they have not had the same quality come on.
