Italy returns to Dortmund to overturn the 2-1 defeat suffered in Milan in the first leg of the Nations League quarter-finals against Germany. Dortmund also brings to mind the 2006 World Cup semi-final won by Italy, one of the most iconic matches in the national team`s history.
“I remember that match in Dortmund in 2006,” said Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann. “We were not happy with that defeat. As I said a few days ago, for me it is more important to talk about the present and create our own history. We have many alternatives and good solutions. It will be important to have possession of the ball and create the right opportunities.”
