Roberto Mancini revelled in watching his Italy side break new ground in Friday’s 3-0 Euro 2020 qualifying win at Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Francesco Acerbi, Lorenzo Insigne and Andrea Belotti were on target as the already qualified Azzurri maintained a 100 per cent record in Group J after nine matches.
The result marked a 10th consecutive victory for Italy, a feat no other Azzurri side has ever managed.
It broke the previous best achieved by Vittorio Pozzo’s side between 1938 and 1939, a fact that brought plenty of joy to head coach Mancini.
#Mancini: “I’m happy with the record, to go above a legend like Pozzo means a lot but the road is still long. We did well to put the game on track early on.” #BOSITA
