Italy unchanged
Afp, Rome
Italy coach Roberto Donadoni said he did not intend to make any changes ahead of the World Cup final rematch against France although they only drew 1-1 against Lithuania in Naples this weekend. The reigning world champions were far from impressive against the Baltic nation but Donadoni said he saw no reason to bring in new faces for Wednesday's Euro 2008 Group B qualifier in Paris. "I'm am not going to make any changes for the match against France," said Donadoni at their Coverciano training centre in Florence. "I'm proud of the players and the whole squad. "What happens if we return from the French game with only a point (after two matches)?" added Donadoni when asked about possible defeat at the Stade de France. "If that happens, I will answer after the match. But I could turn the question round and ask myself what if we came back with four points? It's great to play our World Cup final opponents again."
