4 goals were scored by Israel! Goal Net: Calafiori didn t start because Gattuso wanted to rotate

According to the goal network, Gattuso did not let Calafiori start for Italy because he wanted to rotate.

Italy defeated Israel 5-4 in this round of World Cup qualifiers, with frequent mistakes and misses in the back line, and 2 goals were Italy's own goal.

In the starting list of this game, Calafiori, who performed stably in the last game, was not arranged by Gatuso, but Calafiori's absence was not due to injury or suspension, but was based on Gatuso's tactical choice.

Calafiori performed well in the big victory against Estonia, but did not firmly start. Gattuso chose to adjust the defense line, allowing Roma defender Gianluca Mancini, who had been absent in Italy for a long time, to start, partner with Bastoni, to stand in front of Donnarumma.

Gattuso also emphasized the importance of rotation and lineup depth at the pre-match press conference, saying: "We must applaud Cambiaso, Laspadori and other substitutes. They bring vitality and fresh energy. This cannot be ignored. 45% of the players in the lineup can be replaced, which is an additional wealth. We are lucky to have strong players on the bench, just like in Bergamo."

It is worth mentioning that Calafiori started well at Arsenal this season. He started every game in the first three rounds of the Premier League, performed stably, and gave 1 goal and 2 assists in 3 games. In the opening game, Arsenal defeated Manchester United 1-0 away, and the goal was scored by him.
