As the dust settles on another painful World Cup qualification collapse, the voice of one of the game’s most respected figures has cut through the noise. The shadows of failure have once again fallen over a proud soccer nation such as Italy, and even current Brazil boss Carlo Ancelotti has felt compelled to speak. As the dust settles on another painful World Cup qualification collapse, the voice of one of the game’s most respected figures has cut through the noise. For a country that once defined defensive excellence, the latest setback has triggered deep reflection. The Azzurri now face a long road back, while the domestic league continues to search for answers in an increasingly competitive global landscape. Italy’s failure to qualify for the 2026 World Cup marks a third consecutive absence, an unprecedented fall for a four-time champion. The defeat in the play-off final against Bosnia-Herzegovina has led to sweeping changes, including resignations at federation level and a reset within the national setup. The consequences were immediate and severe, with Italian Football Federation (FIGC) president Gabriele Gravina stepping down, followed by the departure of Gianluigi Buffon from his role and the exit of coach Gennaro Gattuso. The collapse has left the national team searching for identity and direction ahead of the Nations League campaign. Gennaro Gattuso, former Head Coach of Italy, with his players after a game. Ancelotti points to a lost defensive identity in modern soccer Now, weeks after the unfortunate result, Ancelotti has offered a sharp and revealing assessment of where things have gone wrong. Speaking candidly, he argued that the national game has drifted away from the principles that once made it feared across the world. “[Serie A] has lost its defensive solidity,” he said, speaking to Il Giornale. “We already lack talent in other areas of the pitch, but excessive control of the tactical aspect has distorted our characteristics, those on which we have always built our history.” For Ancelotti, the issue is not isolated to individual mistakes but a wider philosophical change in how the game is played. According to Ancelotti, the influence of modern soccer trends has played a significant role in this decline. Italian teams have increasingly embraced high pressing systems and man-to-man marking, approaches that carry risk when not executed perfectly. “I saw games with many goals… but too many goals also means too many mistakes, from goalkeepers and defenders,” he explained. “The so-called high pressure… involves constant risks.” Gianluigi Donnarumma of Italy shows his dejection after the game against Bosnia & Herzegovina.. No more Maradonas, Ronaldos, and Ronaldinhos in Serie A Ancelotti also touched on the changing dynamics of the transfer market, where Italy no longer holds the same appeal it once did. The league that attracted legends from around the world has seen its global influence diminish. “Great foreign players no longer come to Italy.” David Beckham and Ronaldinho of Milan celebrate He recalled legendary names such as Diego Maradona, Ronaldo Nazario, Michel Platini, and Ronaldinho, asking: “Where do young Italian players learn from?” For the 66-year-old tactician, the absence of such figures has reduced the league’s ability to develop elite talent.

The Toffees have been watching him for both club and country ahead of the summer transfer window.

Carlo Ancelotti has blamed Italy’s failure to qualify for three successive World Cups on their inability to develop top-class defenders as they did in the past. The Azzurri, four-time winners of FIFA’s flagship international tournament, suffered an agonising penalty shoot-out defeat to Bosnia-Herzegovina in last month’s play-offs. They are the first former World champions to […] The post Ancelotti blames Italy´s World Cup woes on failure to develop defenders appeared first on Soccer News.

Targeted after Italy’s failure and for his dive in the Derby d’Italia, Alessandro Bastoni returned to form against Roma Italy were too afraid to play a World Cup qualifying playoff at San Siro, hosting their semi-final against Northern Ireland in Bergamo instead. Gennaro Gattuso explained it as a choice to protect his players, noting that the nation’s biggest football stadium was home to two rival clubs – Milan and Internazionale – and suggesting this dynamic might lead fans there to turn more quickly on players who struggled. Instead, on Sunday, it was San Siro that offered comfort to one who has become the scapegoat for yet another collective failure. Italy made it past Northern Ireland only to lose to Bosnia on penalties in Zenica. Alessandro Bastoni’s first-half red card, at a time when his country were winning 1-0, was a pivotal moment in the game and perhaps his entire career.

Roberto Baggio proposed an overhaul of talent pathway in 2011 but it was never acted on and the national team’s approach now is just not working The decline of Italy’s footballing expectations can be read in the headlines that greeted their third consecutive failure to qualify for a men’s World Cup. When the Azzurri lost their playoff against Sweden in November 2017, La Gazzetta dello Sport defined it as “The End” and an “Apocalypse”. After defeat by North Macedonia in 2022, Il Corriere dello Sport saw a country sinking “Into Hell”. On Wednesday both newspapers led coverage of elimination by Bosnia and Herzegovina with a simpler, perhaps sadder, “Tutti A Casa” – Everybody Go Home. What else is there left to say? Italians understood long ago that 2018 was not some aberration but the continuation of a trend, their team having failed to reach the tournament’s knockout stage in 2010 or 2014.

Italy will be absent from a third World Cup in a row this summer after they lost in the play-offs against Bosnia and Herzegovina, who instead booked their spot in North America with a famous victory.

‘It doesn’t feel like a shock anymore’ Italy’s defeat to Bosnia and Herzegovina on penalties means they will miss out on a third consecutive World Cup. The fact this is the largest World Cup in history, expanded to 48 teams, compounds the devastation for Italian fans. But Nicky Bandini isn’t shocked anymore by Italy’s failure to qualify for football’s most coveted tournament.

Hello Rank Squad! This international break gave us what we've been waiting for - the final names locked in for this summer's World Cup field. 48 nations have locked and loaded their spots in the biggest tournament in world football. Perhaps the biggest one missing though, once again, is Italy - with the Azzurri beaten on penalties by Bosnia & Herzegovina to make it three World Cups in a row that they have now missed out on qualification for. We break down that game, as well as Czechia's penalty shootout win over Denmark; Sweden's dramatic late show against Poland; and Türkiye's ground out 1-0 win over Kosovo; as the final European nations booked their places, before heading onwards to take a look at some of our favourite things from the now-set group stages. We take a peek at where the biggest upsets could come, the Group of Death, the Group of Life, where the goals will come, where the chaos will come and who has the most to lose, within the 12 groups of four; before rounding things off with the games you cannot miss in that first round of fixtures.
