Former Italy and AS Roma great
Francesco Totti said Thursday that Italy could win the European
championshios this year for the first time since the Azzurri's
only previous triumph, in 1968.
"Things have gone right up to now," Totti said at a meeting to
announce that he has become one of the ambassadors for the 2026
Milano-Cortina Winter Olympics and Paralympics.
"I'm not saying anything because I don't want to bring bad luck,
but we are united as a team and the team is uniting the country.
"Let's hope that we go as far as possible because it has been a
long time since Italy won the Euros.
"I think this could the right year".
The Azzurri face Austria at Wembley on Saturday after winning
all three of their group games and equalling the 30-match
unbeaten record achieved by Vittorio Pozzo's team in the 1930s.
