(ANSA) - Rome, September 10 - Mario Balotelli has been left
out of Italy's squad for Monday's Nations League match against
Portugal in Lisbon.
Coach Roberto Mancini has reportedly decided not to use the
striker because of a leg-muscle strain he suffered in Friday's
1-1 draw with Poland - the Azzurri's Nations League opener and
their first match under the new boss.
