Vincenzo Montella, coach of Turkey, firmly believes that his team will win their next match against Italy in the UEFA Nations League after a narrow 1-0 defeat against France. In the opening match of their campaign, Kylian Mbappé scored the only goal in the 54th minute as Zinedine Zidane's France won their first match at Turka Arac Muayene Kocaeli Stadyumu. Despite the loss, Montella was delighted with the quality and heart his team showed in the match. The report highlighted some important details: Turkey finished with an expected goals (xG) of 1.21 from 12 attacks, while France had an xG of 1.17 from the same amount of attempts. The last part of the game also caused controversy when Ugurcan Cakir received a red card for a handball outside the penalty box. Montella pointed out that it was only a small mistake that led to the goal, and this is what he will read to fix in the next matches. "You all played well and showed your heart and determination," Montella told his players. "We conceded a goal due to a momentary lack of concentration, but we could have won this match. We will immediately regain our energy and focus on the match against Italy. We will win today, as long as we play with the same discipline and passion."

Italy, on the other hand, made a poor start under Roberto Mancini: the Azzurri lost 2-0 at home to Belgium, with Mika Godts and Dodi Lukebakio netting the goals for Mark van Bommel's debut victory. There is also history behind the matchup: Italy are unbeaten against Turkey in the last 14 encounters (W10 D4), a statistic that indicates the strength of the Azzurri in the traditional confrontation between the two countries. Turkiye is currently in third place in Group A1 after the first matchday of the group. They still have important matches against Belgium and Italy before the end of the international break. For Montella, the performance against France will be the foundation: if discipline and intensity can be maintained, there is enough reason for him to believe that Turkey can get the result they need against Italy. The sequence of the match and its importance in the group draw will push both teams to show a more strict and tactical fight in the next days of the Nations League.

What's next

It is expected that Turkey will continue with their discipline and determination in their match against Italy. The result of this match could have a major impact on the Nations League standings, and could be key in building momentum for Turkey's next matches in the competition.
